How The Gipsy Was Born
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
And God saw that this work was nearly done
A blue, mighty planet circled round the sun
And God saw that this work was nearly done
A blue, mighty planet circled round the sun
And God saw that everything was nice
But there had to be a creature who looked like me and you
So he realised!
So he took some earth and put it in a form
But the oven wasn't hot enough
So the white man was born!
You can live in the cold zone of the world
'Cos you are used to it, since your birth
I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
But one who's not so pale
Has to get a hotter blow!
So he took some earth and put it in a form
But the oven was too hot now
So the black man was born!
You can live in the hot zone of the world
'Cos you are used to it, since your birth
I have to build another creature who looks like me and you
But one who's not so dark
Has to get a special blow!
So he took some earth and put it in a form
And the oven was right now
So the gipsy was born!
Go to the top of the mountain and look
Do you see this land around?
Go where you like to be 'cos you
And the gipsy will be free
