DANCE, GYPSY, DANCE (Arthur Tracy)


as rec by Arthur Tracy  1930's


Dance, gypsy, dance,
Sing as you go,
Bringing joy, dispelling care,
There is music everywhere!

Dance, gypsy, dance,
Red lips aglow,
They are waiting for your taking,
Dance, gypsy, dance!

Every land your kingdom 'neath the sky,
There to live, to love, and then to die.
Trip on every measure,
Life is made for pleasure,
Tra-la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-lah!

Dance, gypsy, dance,
Sing as you go,
Bringing joy, dispelling care,
There is music everywhere!

Dance, gypsy, dance,
Red lips aglow,
They are waiting for your taking,
Dance, gypsy, dance!
