Gypsy,

Sorry, brain-typo not finger-typo - It should be Play Fiddle Play, not Play Gypsy Play. Lyrics by Hack Lawrence, music by Emery Deutcsh & Arthur Altman, copyright 1932 (Edward Marks Music Corporation)

Now the Gypsy band,
Rest their caravan,
Where a hill conceals the sun.
Dusky magic falls,
Gypsy music calls,
Calls to lovers one by one.

A lover strums his fiddles,
While he hums this little song,
M-m-m-m
This is his song,
M-m-m-m

Chorus

Play fiddle, play,
Play my loved one a melody
Sing to my love
While the stars swing a bove
Play fiddle, play
Sing my loved one a rhapsody
Play on the strings of her heart.

The campfires are gleaming
As red as the sun;
And my heart keeps dreaming
Just dreaming of one;
So soflty croon
While the moon weaves our two hearts in harmony
Play fiddle, play
To my love.

I'll have to do a midi file for it - I can't find one on the net. When I do I'll post it to Alan's Mudcat Midi page. It's not folk - I know that, it's most likely not authentic Gypsy music in any way, shape or form, but I love it.
