Gypsy Woman Lyrics by Tim Buckley

Happy Sad

1969

[Intro]
Yes I come around
Never know a little sooner
[Refrain]
Casts a spell on me
Casts a spell on me
Casts a spell on me
Casts a spell on me
Gypsy woman
Gypsy woman
Gypsy woman
[Verse 1]
Well, you were out trying to turn the tide this morning
Now mama don't you lie
You knew it was in the moon and you knew it was in the sky
Oh, gypsy woman
[Refrain]
Tell me please, gypsy woman
Casts a spell on me, darlin'
Casts a spell on me, mama
Casts a spell on me, darlin'
Oh, gypsy woman
[Verse 2]
Mama, every time you turn around the fire
Mama, keep me in between the devil and the sky
And every time you look my way
Mama how you hypnotize
[Refrain]
Tell me please, gypsy woman
Casts a spell on me, darlin'
Casts a spell on me, mama
Casts a spell on me
That gypsy woman casts a spell on me
But if you come runnin' with desire
Oh, gypsy woman knows how to get your blood hot higher
[Verse 3]
Well, asked your daddy
Your papa wouldn't deny it
Asked your mama
Lord, she was quick to agree
I didn't have to fight your brother
And your sister's still standin' in line
Oh, please tell me gypsy woman
How do you hypnotize me?
We're gonna go down to the river
Walk in the water
Oh, we're gonna get all clean
Then we're gonna do, gonna do
Exactly darlin' what you
Came and set your mind on
Casts a spell on me
Casts a spell on me
[Verse 4]
Well, you were out trying to turn the tide this morning
Now mama don't you lie
You knew it was in the moon and you knew it was in the sky
Tell me please, gypsy woman
[Refrain]
Casts a spell on me, darlin'
Casts a spell on me, mama
Casts a spell on me, darlin'.....
