TIME TRAVELLING GYPSY - Karin Page
(Copyright 2018 Karin Page)
July 18, 1953 Marion met Elvis and the rest is history
In walked this kid with a song and put it down
Little did they know, the magic they had found
Oh life these days seems so empty
Wouldn’t it be nice to be 20 in the 50’s
Greenwich village, 1962 Dylan sang his heart out to some good old Guthrie tunes
Said goodbye to Betty, he was better off alone
Didn't think twice about it, he was like a rolling stone
Oh life these days seems so empty
Wouldn’t it be nice to be 20 in the 60’s
Oh along came Carole wove her tapestry for everyone to see
Oh and when she sings her song it takes my heart back to where it belongs
Oh how I wish I was a time travelling gypsy
Then in would be nice
Then it would be nice
Then it would be nice to be 20 in the 70’s
