Melissa Lyrics - Original Album Classics - Allman Brothers Band

Crossroads, seem to come and go, yeah 

The gypsy flies from coast to coast 

Knowing many, loving none 

Bearing sorrow, having fun 

But, back home he'll always run 

To sweet Melissa 

Mmm, hmm 

Freight train, each car looks the same, all the same 

And no one knows the gypsy's name 

And no one hears his lonely sighs 

There are no blankets where he lies 

Lord, in his deepest dreams the gypsy flies 

With sweet Melissa 

Mm, hmm 

Again, the mornin's come 

Again, he's on the run 

A sunbeam's shinin' through his hair 

Fear not to have a care 

Well, pick up your gear and gypsy roll on 

Roll on

Crossroads, will you ever let him go? 

Lord, Lord 

Or will you hide the dead man's ghost? 

Or will he lie, beneath the clay? 

Or will his spirit float away? 

But, I know that he won't stay 

Without Melissa 

Yes, I know that he won't stay, yeah 

Without Melissa 

Lord, Lord, it's all the same
