When I was just a little girl
I had the biggest dreams
Took me from Toronto
All the way to Tennessee
Daddy said to sing it loud
Go on, make your mama proud
Be what you're meant to be
When I bust out of my cage
Boy, you shoulda seen me fly
I ain't into keeping still
And watching life go by
I've the whole world at my feet
I skip along to my own beat
That's just how I survive
I'm a gypsy child, that's what my mama called me
I'm a gypsy child, just a wanderin' free
Travelin' singing songs
Here for now but not for long
I'm a gypsy child
Mama says she misses me
She's sad to see me go
When I make it back to town
She's always at the show
She knows just what I have to do
The gypsy life means pa**in' through
I love the open road
I'm a gypsy child, that's what my mama called me
I'm a gypsy child, just a wanderin' free
Travelin' singing songs
Here for now but not for long
I'm a gypsy child
All the world's a stage I've gotta play
I'll be singing till my dying day
I'm a gypsy child, that's what my mama calls me
I'm a gypsy child, just a wanderin' free
Travelin' singing songs
Here for now but not for long
I'm a gypsy child
Travelin' singing songs
Here for now but not for long
I'm a gypsy child
