Roving Gypsy Boy Paroles

Autum leaves are falling

The egale takes to flight

The open road is a'calling

As day breaks slowly from the night

Day breaks slowly from the night



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 hightly

All through the day he stepped highly



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



Ten thousand miles 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



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



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



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



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



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



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
