Anti-Nowhere League - Gypsies Tramps & Thieves Lyrics

Oi gippo

Well I was born in a wagon of a travelling show
Mumma used to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa did whatever he could
He used to preach a little bible
And fill a couple of bottles of doctor's good

Gypsies, tramps and thieves
We hear it from the town
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Our kids would come around
And lay their money down

Picked up this young girl while out in my car
Took her for a ride, but took her too far
She's sixteen, I'm twenty-one
I had to take her down to Brighton
Her daddy would've shot me
If he knew what I'd done

Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well we hear it from the town
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well our kids would come around
And lay your money down

I'm a gypsy king with a sovereign ring
I'm a sweet talking guy
You gave me a gun so I'm out on the run
And you'll not see me for a while
You'll not see me for a while

I was born in a wagon of a travelling show
Mumma used to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa did whatever he could
He used to preach a little bible
And fill a couple of bottles of doctor's good

Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well we hear it from the town
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well our kids would come around
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well we hear it from the town
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well our kids would come around
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well we hear it from the town
Gypsies, tramps and thieves
Well our kids would come around
