Gypsy Woman

Ry Cooder


From out of nowhere, through a caravan, around the campfire light 
Came a lovely woman in motion with hair as dark as night 
Her eyes were like those of a cat in the dark 
And she hypnotized me with love 

She was a Gypsy Woman 
She danced around and 'round to guitar melody 
From the fire her face was all aglow 
How she enchanted me 
How I'd love to hold her near 
And kiss and forever whisper in her ear 

I love you Gypsy Woman 
I want you Gypsy Woman 
I need you Gypsy Woman 
Just got to have a Gypsy Woman 

All through the caravan, she was dancing with all the men 
Waiting for the rising sun, everyone was having fun 
I hate to see the lady go, knowing she'll never know 
That I love her, I love her 

I love you Gypsy Woman 
I want you Gypsy Woman 
I need you Gypsy Woman 
Just got to have a Gypsy Woman
