the rankin family - roving gypsy boy lyrics
[verse 1]
autumn leaves are falling
the eagle takes to flight
the open road is a’calling
as day breaks slowly from the night
day breaks slowly from the night
[verse 2]
at the breaking of dawn he stepped to the road
in the soft early morn he stepped lightly
humming a song to himself surely owed
and all through the day he stepped highly
all through the day he stepped highly
[chorus]
they call him the roving gypsy boy
he’ll never choose to stay
they call him thе roving gypsy boy
a rambler in his day
a rambler in his day
[verse 3]
ten thousand milеs away from home
ten thousand miles or more
ten thousand miles he chose to roam
like an eagle he did soar
coast to coast and shore to shore
[verse 4]
he rose up in the east and set for the west
traveling the whole world all over
searching for something that he loved the best
like a free living gypsy wild rover
a free living gypsy wild rover
[chorus]
they call him the roving gypsy boy
he’ll never choose to stay
they call him the roving gypsy boy
a rambler in his day
a rambler in his day
[verse 5]
he left the high road to live on the low
and all different kinds he met there
plenty were the good folk
many were the foe
but they all were his friends when he left there
[verse 6]
there’s a lot more to gain from this living than wealth
there’s a lesson to learn with devotion
be kind to all others as well as yourself
or you’ll drift like a boat out on the ocean
drifting like a boat out on the ocean
[chorus]
they call him the roving gypsy boy
he’ll never choose to stay
they call him the roving gypsy boy
a rambler in his day
a rambler in his day
[outro]
well, they call him the roving gypsy boy
he’ll never choose to stay
they call him the roving gypsy boy
a rambler in his day
a rambler in his day
yes, they call him the roving gypsy boy
he’ll never choose to stay
