Texty: Ray Scott. My Kind Of Music. Gypsy.

Freeway signs and faded blacktop
Backstage doors and parkin' lots
That's the world I mostly see
Starin' out of a wide window
A thousand miles away from my home
That's the gypsy in me

Chorus:
The gypsy in me can't stay in one place too long
'Cause there's somebody out there that still ain't heard my song
Yeah, so I roll on to where this road leads
That's the gypsy in me

It's in my heart to bear my soul
With an old guitar and a microphone
I stand up here and sing what I believe
Then I close my eyes and fold my hands
Thank God I've got a girl that understands
And loves the gypsy in me

Repeat Chorus

You know if I'd never heard "I Walk The Line"
"Freebird" or "You Were Always On My Mind"
"Ramblin' Man" or "Me And Bobby McGee"
If I'd never seen the Man In Black
I wouldn't feel the need to wear this kind of hat
And there wouldn't be a gypsy in me

Repeat Chorus

13. Bear With Me Lord (3:36)
Written by Ray Scott & Phillip Moore

Sunday mornin', ten A.M.
My mouth is dry and my blood's runnin' thin
I know where I need to be
And I promise you I'll be on that pew next week
But I can't remember feelin' quite this bad before
Bear with me Lord

I've got a good woman and Lord she's tryin'
She's doin' her best to help me see the light
Before too long, I swear, I'll come around
'Cause I don't wanna let either of you down
Give her the strength to stand by me and not walk out the door
Bear with me Lord

Chorus:
I remember Mama tellin' me back in my younger days
No matter how low down I was you'd love me anyway
The Devil's got me now, but someday I'll be yours
Bear with me Lord

Now she'll be back, a little after twelve
So I'm gonna clean up now and try to compose myself
Thanks for listenin', we'll talk again
It's good to know you'll always be my friend
And someday I'll live up to what you put me down here for
Bear with me Lord
Bear with me Lord
Might take me a little while
