Gypsy Pilot

When I was a young boy

My mama told me, son

You gotta keep it together

You know you're the only one

So I tried to see the sunshine

And tried to feel the rain

But I just couldn't get it together

I was feelin' too much pain.

So I got myself a guitar

When I was just a kid

I played rock and roll music

And I'm so glad I did.

'Cause now I see the sunshine

Now I feel the rain

And I just want to keep it together

And hope you feel the same.

And I try to see the sunshine

And I try to feel the rain

And I just want to keep it together

And I hope you feel the same.

Now I jump in my covered wagon

I'm movin right along

I'm a full-fledged gypsy pilot

I'm singin you my song.

And I try to see the sunshine

And I try to feel the rain

And I just want to keep it together

And I hope you feel the same.

When they claim my body

They won't have much to say

Except that he lived a good life

He lived every day

And I know he saw the sunshine

And I know he felt the rain

And he loved everybody

And he hopes you'll do the same...
