Gypsy Heart Lyrics


Oh, gypsy heart when you hear the whistle of a train
You forget the promise that you made down in lover's lane
You forget the kisses warm, the way you held her in your arms
You forget the way you thrilled her heart with all your gypsy charmsOh, oh, oh, hear the whistle blow
Oh, oh, oh, away, away you go
Gypsy heart you want love but not the settled kind
You'll be the death of love for me, oh gypsy heart of mineI met a girl Birmingham with eyes so big and blue
I loved her since she said, I cannot roam, my dear with you
She said, I want a little home, a heart to love and not roam
I'm sure someday you'll find your own a gypsy heart like youOh, oh, oh, hear the whistle blow
Oh, oh, oh, away, away you go
Up till now the girls you've loved have all been very smart
They know even the change of love can't bind your gypsy heartGypsy heart the wind that blows so far across the sea
Most of you will come along there's pretty things to see
In Ireland there are fair colleens and songs of long ago
And the lovely ladies down in Spain, oh gypsy heart, let's goOh, oh, oh, hear the whistle blow
Oh, oh, oh, away, away you go
You've been doin' everything since Noah sailed his ark

So let's keep rolling 'til we find another gypsy heart

Enjoy the lyrics !!!
Jim Reeves (1923 - 1964), known affectionately as 'Gentleman Jim', was a country singer known for his velvety voice. Through his unique style, which fused the laidback style of crooners such as Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby with country material, he brought country music to a whole new audience. He was also one of the first to bring country music to places outside of America, gaining widespread popularity in Britain, Europe, South Africa and India.

His prolific career was cut tragically short in 1964 by a plane crash. However, even after his death, his popularity did not wane and he continued to have hits some years after his death, with previously unreleased songs and remastered earlier material.

Added 01: One interesting fact was that he recorded an album in Afrikaans for Afrikaners in South Africa. How do I know? I bought the LP many years ago.
