Why should I think that heaven is my homeland
Why should I think that heaven is my homeland
I'm a gypsy and I only want to roam
Why should I hope that God holds my throne when
I'm a rambler I'm here and then I'm gone
Daughter oh daughter when you left home
You left me crying on that porch alone
Mother oh mother, but sorry I can't stay
I don't have a place in my own family
Why should I think that heaven is my homeland
I'm a drifter and I only want to roam
Why should I hope that God holds my throne when
I'm a gypsy I'm here and I'm gone
What's your hurry my child should be safe
You got your whole life to spend running away
Come now child and do as you told
Be careful be conscious be cautious of your soul
Why should I think that heaven is my homeland
I'm a gypsy and I only want to roam
Why should I hope that God holds my throne when
I'm a r#drifter I'm here and I'm gone
I'm a drifter, I only want to roam
Why should I hope that God holds my throne when
I'm a gypsy I'm here and then I'm gone
