Pull me up a chair
and keep your money
there's no guarantees
Won't you please
forgive me
but you know cold
blooded women
make me sneeze
And I'll kick you
out the door
if for just one
minute you lie
And they'll come crashing
though the wall
and leave you crawling
'till the minute you die
Pour yourself
a drink or three
and maybe we'll think
clearer for a while
You may be an
embarrassment
but I love the way your
clothes are never in style
Living's much too easy
and dying would be
some kind of bore
Well you swear that
you're original
but I know I've seen
those jealous eyes before
So steal the watch
from off my wrist
oh and shake me
by the hand
We could disappear
for days
and they wouldn't
understand
Gypsy blood will
get you far
and they will not miss you
when you go
Tear another hole
in my brown shoes
and we can all sleep
for a while
Well I told you
once before
I love your braces and
your hesitant smile
But please don't
get me wrong
it's only right that you
can stamp on my heart
Well I've seen you and
your friend some place
you know I just can't
tell you apart
And though they'll
hunt you like a dog
well they won't
take you alive
'Cause you made
them piles of money
stacked up twenty
stories high
And the boys in every bar
they will not miss you
when you go
So steal the watch
from off my wrist
oh and shake me
by the hand
We could disappear
for days
and they wouldn't
understand
Gypsy blood
will get you far
though it's far
away from me
Look me up
when you get home
and maybe then we'll see
Though they'll hunt
you like a dog
well they won't
take you alive
'Cause you made
them piles of money
stacked up twenty
stories high
And the boys in every bar
well they'll miss you
when you're gone
You can tell a heady tale
and they'll both keep
screaming on
La laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa
La laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa
La laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa, la laa
la laa, la laa
