Lyrics

GYPSY WIND

I know a girl with a secret tattoo
For a few dollar bills she?ll show it to you
When she takes off her clothes for the boys up on Tenth Avenue.
Professional dancers like her all have names
Like Misty and Amber and ain?t it a shame
When you find it gets harder to dream with each passing day.

And she says if she could she would fly away
On that Gypsy Wind.
To far away places and never come back to this town again.
For now she?s just doing the best that she can
Sometimes she loses and sometimes she wins.
Passing the time, waiting in line
On that Gypsy Wind.

I know a guy they call One-Eyed Jack
Got kicked out of the deck, now he can?t go back
So he talks to himself and he lives in a tarpaper shack.
The suicide king had an ace up his sleeve
Told One-Eyed Jack he just had to leave
Now he pushes a cart filled with all of his things down the street.

And he says if he could he would fly away
On that Gypsy Wind.
To far away places and never come back to this town again.
For now he?s just doing the best that he can
Sometimes he loses and sometimes he wins.
Passing the time, waiting in line
On that Gypsy Wind.

And he?s just like the rest.
Never know if we can ever go home again.

And I said if I could I would fly away
On that Gypsy Wind.
To far away places and never come back to this town again.
For now I?m just doing the best that I can
Sometimes I lose and sometimes I win.
Passing the time, waiting in line
On that Gypsy Wind.

I know a girl with a secret tattoo
For a few dollar bills she?ll show it to you
When she takes off her clothes for the boys up on Tenth Avenue.
Professional dancers like her all have names
Like Misty and Amber and ain?t it a shame
When you find it gets harder to dream with each passing day.
