Jim Reeves - Gypsy Heart lyrics

rate me

Oh, Gypsy heart when you hear the whistle of a train

You forget the promise that you made down in lover's lane

You forget the kisses warm

The way you held her in your arms

You forget the way you thrilled her heart with all your gypsy charms.

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Hear the whistle blow

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Away, away you go

Gypsy heart you want love but not the settled kind

You'll be the death of love for me oh gypsy heart of mine.

I met a girl Birmingham with eyes so big and blue

I loved her since she said I cannot roam my dear with you

She said I want a little home

A heart to love and not roam

I'm sure someday you'll find your own a gypsy heart like you.

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Hear the whistle blow

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Away, away you go

Up till now the girls you've loved have all been very smart

They know even the change of love can't bind your gypsy heart.

Gypsy heart the wind that blows so far across the sea

Most of you will come along there's pretty things to see

In Ireland there are fair colleens

And songs of long ago

And the lovely ladies down in Spain oh gypsy heart let's go.

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Hear the whistle blow

Oh - oh - ohhhhhhhhhhh

Away, away you go

You've been doin' everything since Noah sailed his ark

So let's keep rolling 'til we find another gypsy heart.
