 the gypsy poet

gypsy rose lee


    the gypsy told me i had the rose tattoo
      she was smart n wise n lived at Blackpool
      her name it read gypsy rose lee

      she looked into my soul
      n read me
      the cards were spread and the crystal read
      she wore a red spotted headdress

      her caravan was neat twas true
      best of all in old Blackpool
      i was out for a ride that special day
      a trip with the lads from across the way

      the donkeys were ridden on the shore
      the fairground lights there music roared
      she told me my fortune
      twas read in the cards

      she said youl meet someone in later years
      shel be from the states
      shel be the love of your life my dear

      the ferris wheel oh it did spin
      the lights and music the fairground din
      the records played their melodies
      to lonely lovers lost at sea

      she looked so deep within my eyes
      she was so dark n she was so wise
      the silver crossed her palms that day
      i remember it though it was just yesterday

      she was the gypsy Queen of kings
      the fortune telling lady of swing
      she had a dress of red and black
      she was a special lady n had the knack
