Hurry Sundown
Lyrics
Gypsies dances around their campfire
Shook their tambourines.
They were waiting for the the ghost of an outlaw
Sundown was his name
As the midnight hour grew closer
And the sky began to fall
They could see his shadow in the light of the moon
He heard the gypsies call
She had hair as balck as darkness
Her eyes were emerald green
Oh her voice was soft and tender
Ooo, she loved to sing
She will sing no more or dance again
Or shake her tambourines
They had taker her away
She was dead and gone
You could hear the Gypsies sing.
Ooo, Hurry Sundown
Hear the Gypsies cry. (Hurry Sundown)
Ooo, Hurry Sundown (hear the Gypsies)
Hurry Sundown
So with devils in his holsters
Stars strapped to his heels
There was fire is his eys you see
And he was dresses to kill
He had hands as fast a lightning
Eyes as cold as steel
He had come for the one who took her life.
Lying in boot hill
Gypsies dances around their campfire
Shook their tambourines.
They were waiting for the the ghost of an outlaw
Sundown was his name
As the midnight hour grew closer
And the sky began to fall
He could see their shadows in the light of the moon
They heard the gypsies call
Ooo, Hurry Sundown (x4)
