Gypsy Friday

by Townes Van Zandt

If a dream's enough to ease your hungry sorrows
And a song's enough to blow your tears away
And all you need's a rhyme
To help you pass your time
Meet me down the line
On Gypsy Friday
If all you need's a rhyme
To help you pass your time
Meet me down the line on Gypsy Friday

If your mind's alive and free and flying easy
And I'd like to take you with me if I may
Listen to me friend
You better just begin
Blowin' secrets to the winds
Of Gypsy Friday
If you want to call me friend
Then friend you best begin
Blowin' secrets to the winds
Of gypsy Friday

You can lay aside your bucket full of teardrops
But believe me friend it ain't a game I play
When you can give your soul
And come in from the cold
There's stories to be told
Of Gypsy Friday
When you can give your soul
And come in from the cold
There's stories to be told
Of Gypsy Friday

So if you're feeling scared and just a little lonesome
You can dry your eyes and put your fears away
When all the tears are gone
And you want to come along
I'll sing you a song
Of Gypsy Friday
