***************** WILLIE THE WANDERING GYPSY AND ME ****************
written by Billy Joe Shaver
performed by Waylon Jennings.
Capo on the 2nd fret.
Verse 1:
Three fingers whiskey,pleasures the drinkers
And moving does more than the same things for me
Willie he tells me that doers and thinkers
Say moving is the closest thing to being free
Verse 2:
Well he s rosined his reggins,laid back his wages
He s dead set on riding in the big rodeo
My woman s tired with an overdue baby
Willie keeps yelling hey gypsy let s go
Chorus:
Willie you re wild as a Texas blue northern
Ready rolled from the same makins as me
I reckon we re gonna ramble till hell freezes over
Willie the wandering gypsy and me
Verse 3:
Ladies we surely will take off your favors
And we ll surely warn you there never will be
A single soul living that could put brand or handle
On Willie the wandering gypsy and me
Verse 4:
Dance on the mountain,shout in the canyons
Swarm in a loose heard like a wild buffalo
Jamming our heads full of figures and angles
And telling us stuff that we already know
Chorus(x2).
