4.Gypsy
Lyricist:Michael Frederick Box, David John Byron
I was only seventeen
I fell in love with a Gypsy Queen
She told me, 'Hold on'
Her father was the leading man
Said, 'You're not welcome on our land '
And then as a foe, he told me to go
He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her, 'Leave me'
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl, she means all the world
Oh, I want my Gypsy Queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover?
One day I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man that he'll understand
