Words & Music: Rattlesnake Annie
Carmen Mercedes
Gypsy Lady
She said no one could own her
That her heart would always roam
But the dark haired was free as she
And looking for a home
He was born of gypsy blood
His mothers chosen one
She was born a vagabond
As one they slept beneath the stars
Played for coins in the bars
Years passed by she bore a child
Dark of hair with a gypsy smile
Gypsy lady, Gypsy lady
Saying as she’s leaving
Are you free enough to love this Gypsy lady
