She's wild, but the world won't set her free
She's mad, but she's happy as can be

Under the moonlight
swinging and swaying
she holds her candle high
Back in her mind
the drumgirls are playing
ribbons and zills
for her Gypsy lullaby

Her love, is as deep as love can get
You'll try, but nobody's caught her yet

Under the streetlight
dancing and swaying
she holds her head up high
Out on the square
the drumgirls are playing
red tambourines
for her Gypsy lullaby

Bells on her toes
she only goes
wherever the wind takes her
Barefoot and brown
she blows into town
Gold on her fingers
can't hold her down

One day, she decided she could fly
She opened the gate and said... "goodbye"

Up on the rooftop
dancing and praying
she reaches for the sky
Out in the stars
the drumgirls are playing
ringing their bells
for her Gypsy lullaby
