There's a harvest moon and the stars are bright
Dance gypsy dance
There's an early frost on the grass at night
Dance gypsy dance
Dance all night to the fiddle's call
Over in the meadow hid away from them all
Down by the river where the trees grow tall
Dance gypsy dance
I know about you and I know where you been
Dance gypsy dance
You stole some money from a crippled man
Dance gypsy dance
And then hit him in the head with a walking cane
Pushed him outside in the freezing rain
But I bet you won't never do that again
Dance gypsy dance
Turnin', turnin' round the fire
Burnin', burnin' higher and higher
And now you gotta reckon with the dead man's son
He's headed this way with a bullet in his gun
Yeah, the hangin' mob is riding all night
But they can't be here til tomorrow night
And you'll be gone by the mornin' light
Dance gypsy dance
Some shots ring out on the midnight breeze
From a Winchester rifle back in the trees
And nobody moved and nobody spoke
But way down yonder by the hollow oak
Hangin' up there on the end of that rope
Dance gypsy dance
