 the gypsy poet

gypsy talk


cross my palm with silver mister
      buy my heather sprigs
      look into my basket
      open up my lid

      see my hard exterior
      glimpsed my soul within
      let me deal the cards
      let your fortune telling spin

      buy my silver trinkets and my paper rose
      see my ponies watching and see my gay bright clothes
      hear my gypsy dialect don't say cackers please
      for i am just a traveling gal with love all up my sleeve

      hear the fairground chatter
      the ferris wheels in spin
      the boxing booth is open
      Freddie mills within

      see the darts a flying
      hear the gypsy reel
      gaze into my eyes mister
      i have looks to kill

      ride upon the carousel
      bumpers crash and bang
      all besides the handsome frame
       of the tattooed man

      walk upon the heath lands
      where the winds did blow
      where travelers built their homes in clay
      many years ago

      let the music touch you
      let their voices ring
      gold and silver earrings
      hear the chaffinch sing

      where barefooted and freedom
       they all ran hand in hand
      amongst the dunes of canford
      lady guests proud land
