lyrics
Gypsy Django from the East in a caravan on a Paris street
I said oh now, I said oh now
Dizzy jazz and dizzy wine, world war swing for war times
I said oh now, I said oh now
With a glare in his eyes, he’ll stare you down to size
I said oh now
Gypsy Django saved his wife from a burning house and simple life
I said oh now, I said oh now
But he shipped her to that London town when World War II came crashing down
I said oh now, I said oh now
With a glare in his eyes, he’ll stare you down to size
I said oh now
Roma charm and a banjitar
Playing hearts in harmony
His fingers fast were made to last
To fly the paths of history
So he’ll play on
To that jigsaw song
He’ll strum you down to size
Everybody go go
I said oh now
I said oh now, I said oh now
Dizzy jazz and dizzy wine, world war swing for war times
I said oh now, I said oh now
With a glare in his eyes, he’ll stare you down to size
I said oh now
Gypsy Django saved his wife from a burning house and simple life
I said oh now, I said oh now
But he shipped her to that London town when World War II came crashing down
I said oh now, I said oh now
With a glare in his eyes, he’ll stare you down to size
I said oh now
Roma charm and a banjitar
Playing hearts in harmony
His fingers fast were made to last
To fly the paths of history
So he’ll play on
To that jigsaw song
He’ll strum you down to size
Everybody go go
I said oh now
