GYPSY WOMAN

The Impressions

(Curtis Mayfield)



From nowhere through a caravan

Around the campfire light

A lovely woman in motion

With hair as dark as night

Her eyes were like that of a cat in the dark

That hypnotized me with love



Chorus:

She was a gypsy woman,

She was a gypsy woman



Verse 2:

She danced around and round to a guitar melody

From the fire her face was all aglow

How she enchanted me

Oh, how I'd like to hold her near

And kiss and forever whisper in her ear



Chorus 2:

I love you, gypsy woman

I love you, 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



She was a gypsy woman

a gypsy woman, a gypsy woman, a gypsy woman
