Well the gypsy was a lady traveled all over this land The gypsy always traveled alone she never needed a man And the hobo was a drifter drifted from town to town The last thing that the hobo needed was a woman to tie him down
One night they met in a hobo jungle oh the sparks they flew They fought just like two cats and dogs A settin' there eatin' their stew But the hobo's heart was a-melting and the gypsy's was on fire And that night in a hobo jungle they were lost in wild desire
Now the gypsy and the hobo traveled all over this land Border to border and shore to shore they traveled hand in hand So watch the rails and highways wherever you may go You may see the gypsy lady and the wandering hobo Yeah the gypsy lady and the wandering hobo were lost in wild desire
