[00:08.80]I was born in the wagon of a travellin's show
[00:11.44]My mama used to dance for the money they'd throw
[00:14.30]Papa would do whatever he could
[00:19.50]Preach a little gospel, sell a couple bottles of doctor good
[00:27.33]Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
[00:30.04]We'd hear it from the people of the town
[00:31.84]They'd call us gypsys, tramps, and thieves
[00:35.67]But every night all the men would come around
[00:39.46]And lay their money down
[00:46.14]Picked up a boy just south of Mobile
[00:48.79]Gave him a ride, filled him with a hot meal
[00:51.51]I was sixteen, he was twenty-one
[00:56.67]Rode with us to Memphis
[00:59.19]And papa woulda shot him if he knew what he'd done
[01:04.29]Gypsys, tramps, and thieves
[01:07.05]We'd hear it from the people of the town
[01:08.95]They'd call us gypsys, tramps, and thieves
[01:12.61]But every night all the men would come around
[01:15.90]And lay their money down
[01:20.32]I never had schoolin' but he taught me well
[01:22.73]With his smooth southern style
[01:26.11]Three months later i'm a gal in trouble
[01:28.53]And i haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh
[01:35.22]I haven't seen him for a while, uh-huh
