Gypsies On Parade Lyrics - Sawyer Brown

We pulled out of Charlotte, the snow is fallin' down 

We make our way in this one-eagle sleigh, till we reach another town 

Our name is in lights on the billboard signs, in every town we play 

But if you may, all it really need say, are gypsies, gypsies on parade 

We pull into a diner, folks just stop and stare 

You hear 'em say, man, it's a rock 'n' roll band 

By the look and the clothes they wear 

Then you telephone home 'cause you're feelin' alone 

And try to think of somethin' to say 

Seems all you get are tears of regret 

For being gypsies, gypsies on parade 

Gypsies on parade, vagabonds that got it made 

They don't know what they've been told 

About the diamond rings and fancy things we wear 

They don't know what dues we pay for being gypsies, gypsies on parade 

Home is where the heart is but the heart is never home 

As I count the white lights on the exit signs, it's this guitar is all I ever hold 

But the stories we can tell or the stories we tell 

Make better all the time spent away 

From family and friends, oh, it never ends for gypsies, gypsies on parade 

Gypsies on parade, vagabonds that got it made 

They don't know what they've been told 

About the diamond rings and fancy things we wear 

They don't know what dues we pay for being gypsies, gypsies on parade 

We pulled out of Charlotte, the snow was fallin' down
