Caravan Lyrics


And the caravan is on it's way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama, mama look at Emma Rose
She's playin' with the radioLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laAnd the caravan has all my friends
It will stay with me until the end
Gypsy Robin and sweet Emma Rose
Tell me everything I need to knowLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laTurn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal youIf you would turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
Turn it up, turn it up, so you know, radioLa, la, la, la, la

La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laAnd the caravan is painted red and white
That means everybody's staying overnight
There's a barefoot gypsy player 'round the campfire singin' and playin'
And a woman tells us of her waysLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laTurn up radio and let me hear, song
Switch on your electric light
Then we get down to what is really wrong
I long just to hold you tight so baby, I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night, I shall reveal youIf you would turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
Turn it up, that's enough, so you know, it's got soul
Radio, radio, turn it upLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, laLa, la, la, la, la
La, la, la
La, la, la, la, la
La, la, la

George Ivan Morrison (generally known as Van Morrison) (born 31 August 1945) is a Grammy Award-winning artist from Belfast, Northern Ireland. He's a singer, songwriter, author, poet, and multi-instrumentalist, who has been a professional musician since 1958. He plays a variety of instruments, including the guitar, harmonica, keyboards, drums, and saxophone. Featuring his characteristic growl - a unique mix of folk, blues, Irish, scat, and Celtic influences - Morrison is widely considered one of the most unusual and influential vocalists in the history of rock and roll.

Known as "Van the Man" by his fans, Morrison first rose to prominence as the lead singer of the Northern Irish band Them, writing their 1964 hit "Gloria". A few years later, Morrison left the band for a successful solo career, starting with the album Astral Weeks.

Morrison has pursued an idiosyncratic musical path. Much of his music is tightly structured around the conventions of American soul and R&B, such as the popular singles "Brown Eyed Girl", "Moondance", "Domino", and "Wild Night". An equal part of his catalogue consists of lengthy, loosely connected, spiritually inspired musical journeys that show the influence of Celtic tradition, jazz, and stream-of-consciousness narrative, such as his classic album Astral Weeks and lesser known works such as Veedon Fleece and Common One. The two strains together are sometimes referred to as "Celtic Soul," and Morrison rejects the characterization of his genre of music as Rock, citing Elvis Presley as a non-influence.

He continues to perform regularly, and achieved his highest U.S. chart position (number ten on the Billboard 200) with his latest album, Keep It Simple.
