|
Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem |
|
Cannot hold you to it's heat |
|
Your temperature's too hot for taming |
|
Your flaming feet are burning up the street |
|
I am homeless come and take me |
|
Into the reach of your rattling drums |
|
I gotta know babe all about my fortune |
|
Down along my restless palms |
|
Gypsy gal, you've got me swallowed |
|
I have fallen far beneath |
|
Your pearly eyes so fast and slashing |
|
And your flashing diamond teeth |
|
The night is pitch black, come and make my |
|
Pale face fit in the place, ah please |
|
I gotta know babe, I'm nearly drowning |
|
If it's you, my lifelines trace |
|
I've been wonderin' all about me |
|
Ever since I seen you there |
|
On the cliffs of your wildcat 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 got to laugh halfways off my heels |
|
I got to know babe, will you surround me? |
|
So I can know if I'm really real |
