 (Verse 1)
Ridin'  on a greyhound, countin'  those white lines
Destination I  don't know and I'm feelin'  like I'm dyin'
Well  ten years on  this road, my  its took its toll
 But the man  with the plan  says the band  has got to go
 (Chorus)
 I said roll gypsy roll
 Lord just pick  up your bags  and go
 (Verse 2)
Met  many a woman  on my way  down the line
Every  woman that  I met I  left satisfied
I  made lots of money,  just how much  I don't know
But  most of the money  I done stuck  up my nose
 (Chorus)
 I said roll gypsy roll
 Lord just pick  up your bags  and go
 (Verse 3)
Gypsy's  life's a story and its one  that's never told
He's  always hungry, he's always  on the go
With  no tomorrow, its how  it seems to be
When  you're moving around from town  to town
 (Verse 4)
Made  lots of money  just how much  I don't know
But  most of the money  I done stuck  up my nose
And  maybe that's the reason  I don't know  where I'm going
 I don't know
