[Dolly Parton - Gypsy, Joe and Me lyrics]
We might have slept in a mail
Yard or camped by the riverbanks
We fed ourselves from the fruit of the land
And quenched our thirst with rain
We never did allow no roots
To grow beneath our feet
Life just had no pattern for Gypsy, Joe
And me
All we had was each other and
The rags upon our back
The closest thing to a home we
New was some abandoned shack
But we had all we wanted and
The rest we didn't need
Life was free and simple for Gypsy, Joe
And me
Now Gypsy was my little dog I'd found
By the road in a ditch
And so I named him Gypsy
'cause that name just seemed to fit
Oh and Joe, he was my man
The flower of my soul
Though he never said he loved me
I just always seemed to know
While standing by the highway
A-thumbin' for a ride
The speeding wheels of a passing
Car took Gypsy's life
I lost him where I found him
And his loss was misery
Now there's no more Gypsy
There's just Joe and me
Well the winter came and the snow did fall
And the night was cold and still
And the rags we wore were not enough
And Joe, he caught the chill
And he told me how he loved me
And in my arms he went to sleep
Now there's no more Gypsy, no more Joe
There's just me
While standing here on the
Edge of this bridge looking down I see
The face of Joe and Gypsy, looking' up at me
And somewhere in the distance I
Can hear them calling me
Tonight we'll be together again
Gypsy, Joe, and me
Yea tonight we'll be together again
Gypsy, Joe, and me
Yard or camped by the riverbanks
We fed ourselves from the fruit of the land
And quenched our thirst with rain
We never did allow no roots
To grow beneath our feet
Life just had no pattern for Gypsy, Joe
And me
All we had was each other and
The rags upon our back
The closest thing to a home we
New was some abandoned shack
But we had all we wanted and
The rest we didn't need
Life was free and simple for Gypsy, Joe
And me
Now Gypsy was my little dog I'd found
By the road in a ditch
And so I named him Gypsy
'cause that name just seemed to fit
Oh and Joe, he was my man
The flower of my soul
Though he never said he loved me
I just always seemed to know
While standing by the highway
A-thumbin' for a ride
The speeding wheels of a passing
Car took Gypsy's life
I lost him where I found him
And his loss was misery
Now there's no more Gypsy
There's just Joe and me
Well the winter came and the snow did fall
And the night was cold and still
And the rags we wore were not enough
And Joe, he caught the chill
And he told me how he loved me
And in my arms he went to sleep
Now there's no more Gypsy, no more Joe
There's just me
While standing here on the
Edge of this bridge looking down I see
The face of Joe and Gypsy, looking' up at me
And somewhere in the distance I
Can hear them calling me
Tonight we'll be together again
Gypsy, Joe, and me
Yea tonight we'll be together again
Gypsy, Joe, and me
