[Verse 1]
You rolled in dust and gold
Boots on the market stone
Your rings hit the cup
Like a promise made of bone
[Verse 2]
You smile with a crooked spark
Eyes on the river bend
Every dog in the yard
Knows you don't break, you bend
[Pre-Chorus]
Come a little closer
Say my name like that
Turn the floor to fire
And don't look back
[Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
[Verse 3]
You tap on the tabletop
Like rain on a tin roof
I was set in my ways
Then you came with the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
Come a little closer
Say my name like that
Turn the floor to fire
And don't look back
[Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
[Bridge]
[Breakdown]
Hands in the dust now
Hearts on the line
If you lead, I follow
One step at a time
[Final Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
You rolled in dust and gold
Boots on the market stone
Your rings hit the cup
Like a promise made of bone
[Verse 2]
You smile with a crooked spark
Eyes on the river bend
Every dog in the yard
Knows you don't break, you bend
[Pre-Chorus]
Come a little closer
Say my name like that
Turn the floor to fire
And don't look back
[Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
[Verse 3]
You tap on the tabletop
Like rain on a tin roof
I was set in my ways
Then you came with the truth
[Pre-Chorus]
Come a little closer
Say my name like that
Turn the floor to fire
And don't look back
[Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
[Bridge]
[Breakdown]
Hands in the dust now
Hearts on the line
If you lead, I follow
One step at a time
[Final Chorus]
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Spin my heart, let it sing
Gipsy king, gipsy king
One more spin, I give in
Gipsy king, gipsy king
Raise that cry, make it ring
Stijl van muziek
Latin pop-flamenco with palmas, nylon-string guitar, and a rolling handclap groove; verse stays tight and percussive with sparse bass and call-and-response shouts, pre-chorus lifts with snare fills and rising harmonic vocals, chorus hits with full gang claps and a chantable hook. Lead vocal is rough, close-mic, and doubled on key phrases with playful ad-libs. Castanet flicks, reverse guitar swells, and a short brass stab bridge the sections. Bright, dry, and fiery mix with a live room feel.
