Young Gypsy
By Jeff Rolfzen & Rocky Steen-Rolfzen
Young gypsy young gypsy
You’re no friend to me
You always need something, you’re just like a thief
My home you have plundered now the truth rings like thunder
Young gypsy young gypsy best be on your way
You said you need shelter for an evening or two
But you’ve been in my doors for two whole full moons
I am not a hard man, a bad man, a mean man
But I cannot have you you must be a leavin’
Young gypsy young gypsy
You’re no friend to me
You always need something, you’re just like a thief
My home you have plundered now the truth rings like thunder
Young gypsy young gypsy best be on your way
I’ve been kind I’ve been giving I need no return
Your life seems a lesson that you’ve yet to learn
I gave you my bread let you eat from my pantry
Then you laid in my bed and smoked my last cigarette
Young gypsy young gypsy
You’re no friend to me
You always need something, you’re just like a thief
My home you have plundered now the truth rings like thunder
Young gypsy young gypsy best be on your way
A thief he will rob you and take what you have
Young gypsy will load all they can on their back
And they will walk many miles away from your home
And find the next person to take on their load
You’re no friend to me
You always need something, you’re just like a thief
My home you have plundered now the truth rings like thunder
Young gypsy young gypsy best be on your way
Young gypsy young gypsy best be on your way
