Spanish Harlem Incident Lyrics - Joan Osborne

Gypsy gal, the hands of Harlem 

Cannot hold you to its heat 

Your temperature's too hot for taming 

Your flaming feet burn up the street 

I am homeless, come and take me 

Into reach of your rattling drums 

Let me know, babe, about my fortune 

Down along my restless palms 

Gypsy gal, you got me swallowed 

I have fallen far beneath 

Your pearly eyes, so fast an' slashing 

An' your flashing diamond teeth 

The night is pitch black, come an' make my 

Pale face fit into place, ah, please! 

Let me know, babe, I'm nearly drowning 

If it's you my lifelines trace

20 Classic Christmas Lyrics to Celebrate The Holiday Season 

I been wondering all about me 

Ever since I seen you there 

On the cliffs of your wildcat charms I'm riding 

I know I'm 'round you but I don't know where 

You have slayed me, you have made me 

I got to laugh halfways off my heels 

I got to know, babe, will you surround me? 

So I can tell if I'm really real 

I got to know, babe, will you surround me? 

So I can tell if I'm really real
