Gypsy (Sarah Jarosz)

I saw a gypsy today She was beautiful I couldn’t look away She was yellow and gray The colors of the day A bit too gorgeous And not much to say Stars on her little white wrists Silken ribbons Flowing from her hips A smile that stopped time Bittersweet as wine She’s lost and she’s fine Taking her time I saw a gypsy today Across the way I heard someone say Pick up a penny Have luck for a day But I picked that coin up And I ain’t found no luck Just wanderin’ and stuck In the mud and the muck But I saw a gypsy today
