Oh gypsy rose
I will wait for your sun to shine
Now you got me going somewhere no one could find
All in my life
Its the world that makes me cry
Oh summer days go back home give your body away
Milky arms and legs wrap around this neglected friend
And the world will make your cry
Yeah, the world won't tell you why
But this world won't make you die
'Cause I loved you right
Oh gypsy rose
You got me swallowed up in your streets
Bring your food, money, shoes
Just to lie here with you neath your sheets
I see hope in your life
It's the world that makes you cry
Rose I got no friends, I got no kids and i don't got a key
My one salvation is the warmth of your skin
And this world will make you cry
Yeah, the world will make you lie
Oh, the world will suck you dry
Ah, but I loved you right
Oh summer day go back home give your body away
And when I wait you'll have saved my life
