Will Oldham – New Gypsy lyrics
It was gobbled up by everyone
Trying to get its taste
While I marched balking at
How I had been so rudely placed
Recommended was a bar
Where we could feel alone
Unsurrounded unadorned
Unhappy and forlorn
Never take sick advice
From the lips of sick friends
Following the sickness takes
Its own unending end
It's the land it is the land
Swept over by the light
Run with dogs and wave your arms
And don't come home till night
Does everybody talk about
Another one at night
Break a button open and
Let lady see the light
All the bones were slipping out
Now I have brought me in
Never let the weakness slip
Into the trend again
One of my family has a house
She's offered me to stay
And leave the love to everyone
Whom obstacles waylay
Never take the advice
From the lips of sick friends
Rather take it turn it round
Till it suits your own ends
You can lay me out a place
It's time I had some love
Have the ladies gather round
And do me from above
Trying to get its taste
While I marched balking at
How I had been so rudely placed
Recommended was a bar
Where we could feel alone
Unsurrounded unadorned
Unhappy and forlorn
Never take sick advice
From the lips of sick friends
Following the sickness takes
Its own unending end
It's the land it is the land
Swept over by the light
Run with dogs and wave your arms
And don't come home till night
Does everybody talk about
Another one at night
Break a button open and
Let lady see the light
All the bones were slipping out
Now I have brought me in
Never let the weakness slip
Into the trend again
One of my family has a house
She's offered me to stay
And leave the love to everyone
Whom obstacles waylay
Never take the advice
From the lips of sick friends
Rather take it turn it round
Till it suits your own ends
You can lay me out a place
It's time I had some love
Have the ladies gather round
And do me from above
