Caravan - Live

Lyrics

And the caravan is on it's way
 I can hear the merry gypsies play
 Mama-mama-mama, mama-mama-mama-mama
 Look at Emma Rose, Emma Rose, Emma Rose
 She's a-playin' with the shortwave radio
 And the caravan has all my friends, all my friends
 And they stay with me until, until the bitter end
 Gypsy Robin, sweet Emma Rose, huh
 Tell me everything, everything I need to know
 La, la, la-la, la, la, la
 La, la, la-la, da-dup, da-dup, da-dup, dup-da-da-da
 Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
 Switch on your electric light
 Then we can get down to what is really wrong
 I long to behold you in my arms so I can, so I can feel you
 Sweet lady of the night I shall and I will reveal you
 If you will, huh
 Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
 Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up, so you know, it's got soul
 La-da, da-da, la, da, da, da-da-da-da, da-da-da
 La-dup, da-dup, da-dup, da-da, la

 Hey

 And the caravan is painted red and white
 That means everybody's stayin' overnight, overnight
 And the barefoot gypsy boy, 'round the campfire, sing and play
 And a woman tells us of her ways
 La, la, la-la, la, la, la
 La, la, la-lup, da-dup, da-dup, da, da-da-da-da, da-dup
 Turn up your radio and let a-me, let a-me hear the song
 Switch on your electric light
 I long just to hold you in my arms so I can, so I can feel you
 Sweet lady, sweet lady of the night I shall and I will reveal you
 If you will
 Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
 Turn it up, so you know, it's got soul, it's got soul
