Gypsies Tramps & Thieves Lyrics - Anti-nowhere League

Oi gippo! 

Well I was born in a wagon of a travelling show 

Mumma used to dance for the money they'd throw 

Grandpa did whatever he could 

He used to preach a little bible 

And fill a couple of bottles of doctor's good 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

We hear it from the town 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Our kids would come around 

And lay their money down 

Picked up this young girl while out in my car 

Took her for a ride, but took her too far 

She's sixteen, I'm twenty-one 

I had to take her down to Brighton 

Her daddy would've shot me 

If he knew what I'd done 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well we hear it from the town 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well our kids would come around 

And lay your money down 

I'm a gypsy king with a sovereign ring 

I'm a sweet talking guy 

You gave me a gun so I'm out on the run 

And you'll not see me for a while... 

You'll not see me for a while 

I was born in a wagon of a travelling show 

Mumma used to dance for the money they'd throw 

Grandpa did whatever he could 

He used to preach a little bible 

And fill a couple of bottles of doctor's good 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well we hear it from the town 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well our kids would come around 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well we hear it from the town 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well our kids would come around 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well we hear it from the town 

Gypsies, tramps & thieves 

Well our kids would come around
