Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem
Cannot hold you to its heat
You're temperature is too hot for tamin'
Your flamin' feet are burnin' up the street.
I am homeless come and take me
to the reach of your rattle and drums.
Let me know, babe, all about my fortune
down along my restless palms.
Gypsy gal, you got me swallowed
I have fallen far beneath
your perly eyes so fast and slashing
and your flashing diamond teeth.
The night is pitchblack come and make my
pale face fit in the place of pleas.
Let me know, babe, I'm nearly drownin'
If it's you, my lifeline's trace.
I've been wondering all about me
ever since I've seen you there
on your cliffs of your wild cat charms I'm riding
I know I'm round you but I don't know where.
You have slayed me you have made me
I've got to laugh half ways off my heels
I got to know, babe, oh will you surround me
so I can know if I am really real.
Overall, enjoy!
