"Gypsy" lyrics - RONNIE ROMERO

I was only seventeen
Fell in love with a gypsy queen
She told me, "Hold on," ooh
Her father was the leading man
Said, "You're not welcome on our land"
And then as a foe, he told me to go, ah

He took me to a little shack
And put a whip across my back
Then told her leave me, oh
I was out for quite a time
Came back with her on my mind
Sweet little girl, she means all the world, ah

[Instrumental break]

Though I want my gypsy queen
Will she still be torn between
Her father and lover?
Mmm, oh
One day, I will go to him
Strong enough to fight and win
The kind of a man that he'll understand, ah

[Outro:]
Ah
Ah
