Deep Purple - The Gypsy Lyrics






Tell me gypsy can you see me
In your crystal ball
I'm asking you what can I do
My back's against the wall
And I can't hold on much longer
So I've come to you my friend
For now my life seems at an end

I came to see you once before
One hundred years ago
You took my hand and broke the spell
That should have let me go
But my years have gone so slowly
So I'm here again my friend
For now my life is at an end

Deep Purple The Gypsy Comments
  1. O.... J....

    this still blows me away, The start of RainBow

  2. D.... C....

    Excellent track. For me this and the title track were the best on the album. The "funky" stuff wasn't my cup of tea (each to their own as they say). You can definitely tell Coverdale and Hughes are putting their stamp on the album, and you do end up with a different sound. Burn was better though imo.

  3. V.... T....

    Высший альбом все на одном дыхании..46 лет а слушается как в первый раз .браво этим мужикам

  4. A.... M....

    The great song

    Realy a very underrated Purple album, but if anybody takes a closer look, there is not a single weak song, and there are genious hits like this one (Gipsy), and Soldier of Fortune, and the other songs are very good, too!!
    And look at the musicians!!
    Like a supergroup!!! 🤗👍✌️

    A great music

  73. m.... ....

    Stormbringer for as turbulent as the creation of it was is an under rated record for sure. I wouldn't say it's anywhere near their best, but it's one of my personal favorites.

  87. L.... F....

    Best song on this album !!

  88. R.... W....

    there's a three way tie in my heart for my favorite deep purple album machine head strormbringer and fireball

    R.... W....

    What about In Rock, Burn, Perfect Strangers and The House of Blue Light ??

    R.... W....

    baldarati loko my favorite Deep Purple album is either Perfect Strangers or House Of Blue Light, it depends on the day of the week I guess 😂.

  89. M.... D....

    Not sure why Ritchie did not like this Deep Purple album when his playing is soooo superb throughout!

    M.... D....

    @jp codnia Not arguing, but I wish every album could "suck" like this one.

    M.... D....

    Ritchie was already working on going heavier sound. Rainbow was in his eyesight.....true artist....

    M.... D....

    Milos Dunjic Because at this time Blackmore was amazing even when he wasn’t trying.

    M.... D....

    @jp codnia ,....ok, maybe him; but not us, the true lovers of DP! - ok, it's not a full hardrock one, but the melodic tunes are arranged finely! LOVE IT ! NEVER WANNA MISS IT ! :-)

    M.... D....

    He doesn't like it? Lol, is he serious

  90. �.... ....

    隠れ名盤

  91. P.... M....

    This song belongs in a Rainbow album

  92. p.... c....

    Love it my fav of purple.

  93. M.... W....

    Hard......so im here my friends

    M.... W....

    Ronni james far yup....MR JIELLNN CREATS OF CREATESTS

  94. P.... H....

    Este es uno de esos temas "del viejo rock" que marcan una gran diferencia por su inspiración y el fino concepto en su desarrollo temático, las dobles voces de Robert Coverdale y Glen Hughes, más los punteos de la guitarra de Richie Blackmore son magistrales: ¡Son una joya en este género de música!

  95. P.... C....

    the best track on stormbringer. needs another verse tho imo

    P.... C....

    I agree...best track !

    P.... C....

    When I first heard the album I was around thirteen, already knew about some other classic Purple albums and had become a major fan of the band. This song sounded a bit half-done to me at the time, a slow riff that's repeated steadily and never seems to go anywhere, and plaintive lyrics which didn't do anything for me. Now I can hear it is a really well crafted song, lovely guitar playing and drumming and a nice harmony of voices, but it's a song you need to grow into with a bit of age.

  96. G.... G....

    É isso que eu falo. Lendas vivas do Rock

    Pena que um dia morrerão Grande Gilnei...
