Thread Name: Lyr Req: Gypsy (Keith Sykes)
Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Song about a dog named dixie
I'll try to do a little searching if and when I have time. If anyone discovers more on this song, please post.

This sounds like one of those songs I need to learn for my collection so when I get those snide comments about how all folk songs are sad songs about death, love gone bad, etc., I can throw this one at them as an example of unconditional love. They probably won't consider it an uplifting song or a "happy" one, but it would help show the point that most people don't act, trust, or love without question; that's why so many songs are about the things gone bad.
