Cherokee Rose — Gypsy Wind

[Verse 1] Got my first guitar When I was nine years old My daddy bought it at a store in Chicago And he worked the line for the railroad Brought it home one early dawn And handed it to me with a smile Felt my soul light up, I said "Thank you, pop," and I became a gypsy child [Chorus] Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars Don't know if I can stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars I know I'll never stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart [Verse 2] Gypsy wind blowin' through my hair From the window of a big old bus Gypsy wind on the arms of strangers Who smile and wave back at us I got my band and my crew and they know just what to do When thе gypsy wind settles for a while Wе'll play a song for you, not too sad or too true And maybe with a gypsy smile [Chorus] Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars Don't know if I can stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars I know I'll never stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart [Bridge] Across the mountains, through the Delta and the prairie Indian legend say somethin' blows wild and free Can't say I've ever seen it, but they tell me it's my friend I only know when I feel it It feels like the gypsy wind [Chorus] Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars Don't know if I can stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart Gypsy wind got a hold on me Gonna ride it 'til I reach the stars I know I'll never stop once I start I was born with the gypsy wind in my heart
