Crossroads
Seem to come and go
Yeah
Gypsy flies from coast to coast
Knowing money, loving none
Burying sorrow, having fun
But back home he'll always run
To sweet Melissa
Freight train
Each car looks the same
All the same
No one knows the gypsy's name
No one hears his lonely sighs
(No one hears his lonely sighs)
There are no blankets where he lies
(No blankets where he lies)
Lord, in the deepest dreams the gypsy flies
To sweet Melissa
Again the morning comes
Again he's on the run
Sunbeams shining through his hair
Appearing not to have a care
So pick up your gear and gypsy roll on, roll on
Roll on
Crossroads
Will you ever let him go?
No, no, no
Will you hide the dead man's ghost?
Will he lie beneath the plain?
(Will he lie beneath the plain?)
Will his spirit float away?
(Will his spirit float away?)
But I know that he won't stay
Without Melissa
Yes I know that he won't stay
Without Melissa
No, no, he just won't stay
No, no, he just won't stay
Gypsy flies from coast to coast
To sweet Melissa
