Jennings Waylon I Recall A Gypsy Woman Lyrics

I Recall A Gypsy Woman Lyrics

Verse 1:

 Silver coins that jingle-jangle

 Fancy shoes that dance in time

 All the secrets of her dark eyes

 The lady'd sing a gypsy rhyme

 Yellow clover in tangled blossoms

 In a meadow silky green

 Where she held me to her bosom

 Just a boy   of seventeen

 

 CHORUS:

 I recall a gypsy woman, silver spangles in her eyes

 Ivory skin against the moonlight

 And the taste of life's sweet wine

 

 Verse 2:

 Soft breezes blow from fragrant meadows

 Stir the darkness in my mind

 Oh gentle woman, you sleep beside me

 And little know who haunts my mind

 Gypsy lady, I hear your laughter

 And the dances in my head

 While my tender wife and babies

 Slumber softly in their beds

 

 (chorus)
