"Gypsies, Tramps, and Thieves"
(Bob Stone)

Verse 1:


I was born in the wagon of a traveling show

My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw

Papa'd do whatever he could

Preach a little gospel

Sell a couple bottles of Dr. Good

Chorus:


Gypsies, tramps and thieves

We'd hear it from the people of the town, they'd call us

Gypsies, tramps and thieves

But every night all the men would come around
[1,3: Am 2: Dm C Dm C; to bridge]
And lay their money down

Verse 2:

Picked up a boy this side of Mobile
Gave him a ride, fed him with a hot meal
I was 16, he was 21
Rode with us to Memphis
And Papa would have shot him if he knew what he'd done

[chorus]

Bridge:


Never had schoolin' but he taught me well

With his smooth Southern style

Three months later I'm a gal in trouble

And I haven't seen him for a while

I haven't seen him for a while

Verse 3:

She was born in the wagon of a traveling show
Her mama used to dance for the money they'd throw
Grandpa'd do whatever he could
Preach a little gospel
Sell a couple bottles of Dr. Good

[repeat chorus to fade]
