I was born in the wagon of a travelin' show. Mama used to dance for the money they'd throwpapa would do what ever he couldpreach a little gospeland sell a couple bottles of Doctor Good. Gypsys Tramps & thieves. We'd hear it from the people of the town. They called us Gypsys Tramps & Thievesand ev'ry night all the men would come aroundand lay their money down. We picked up a boy just south of mobile. We gave him a ridefilled him with a hot meal.I was sixteenhe was twenty-one. Rode with us to Memphisand Pa would-a shot him if he knew what he'd done. Gypsys Tramps & Thieves...I was born...
