I was born in the wa-gon 
-6 7  -7  7  -6   -7
of a trav-el-in’ show 
7  7   7   -6   7    7  -7 
Ma-ma used to dance for the 
 7  -6   -5     -5
mon-ey they’d throw.

Pa-pa would do what-ev-er he could
  7    7  7  -7   7  -6
preach a lit-tle gos-pel, 
 5   7   7  7  -7   7   -6  -5
and sell a cou-ple bot-tles of

Gyp-sys, Tramps, and Thieves, 
  9   -9  -9  -9
we’d hear it from   
-9  -9   8 -7*  7   -7 
the peo-ple of the town, 
 -7    8    -9 
they called us, 
-9  10     -10   10    -9 
Gyp-sys, Tramps, and Thieves, 
-6  -7  -7  -7
and ev-‘ry nite 
 7   7   7    7    -6 -6  -6
all the men would come a-round, 
 5  -5    5   -5  5   -5
and lay their mon-ey down.

We picked up a boy just south of Mo-bile,
7   7    7 -6  7 
we gave him a ride, 
  7    -7   7  -6 -5  -5
filled him with a hot meal.

I was six-teen, he was twen-ty one, 
 7    7   7  -7  7   -6
rode with us to Mem-phis, 
 5  7    7   7  -7   7
and Pa would-a shot him 
-6 -5   7   7    -5   -6
if he knew what he’d done.

I nev-er had school-in’ but he tau’t me well
  7  -6    7     -6   -6   -5
With his smooth south-ern style
-5    7     7    -7 -7  -7 -7 -7*  -7  7   -6
But three months la-ter I'm a girl in trou-ble
-6 -6   7   7   7   -7  -7*-7* 8
And I have-n’t seen him for a while
8  -9-9  -10 -10  -10 -10 -7*-7*  8
Mm mm I have-n’t seem him for a while
