And although he never knew
What heartache is
He went out for a single kiss
And he told his father
That he's never coming back
But maybe with a broken back
He was a gypsy from the coast
And what he wanted the most
Was being on his own, all alone
In the dark and the light, every night
And he'd want nobody to be tired
And he'd get it and hide it and let me down
He wanted it all, in all the town
It got to be the same for me
And all he'd ever be
Is the gypsy feeling free
Hey, hey, hey, hey
That gypsy from the coast
And what he wanted the most
That gypsy from the coast
And what he wanted the most
All the times that he tried to lie
He was able to set his fire
All the people around listening to his sound
And he was crazy, without no doubt
And he let them in a hung and a rouse
And not in the city and not in the blues
And nobody knows you
When you're all down and out
And if you like him
Just give me some money
Oh, come on like him
He's very funny
Hey, hey, hey, hey
That gypsy from the coast
And what he wanted the most
That gypsy from the coast
And what he wanted the most
Oh, that gypsy from the coast
What he wanted the most
That gypsy from the coast
What he wanted the most
And though he never knew
What heartache is
He went out for a single kiss
Hey!
