If you getcha one girl, better get two
Case you run into Gypsy Lou
She’s a ramblin’ woman with a ramblin’ mind
Always leavin’ somebody behind
Hey, ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again

Well, I seen the whole country through
Just to find Gypsy Lou
Seen it up, seen it down
Followin’ Gypsy Lou around
Hey, ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again

Well, I gotta stop and take some rest
My poor feet are second best
My poor feet are wearin’ thin
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Hey, gone again
Gypsy Lou’s ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s ’round the bend

Well, seen her up in old Cheyenne
Turned my head and away she ran
From Denver Town to Wichita
Last I heard she’s in Arkansas
Hey, ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again

Well, I tell you what if you want to do
Tell you what, you’ll wear out your shoes
If you want to wear out your shoes
Try and follow Gypsy Lou
Hey, gone again
Gypsy Lou’s ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s ’round the bend

Well, Gypsy Lou, I been told
Livin’ down on Gallus Road
Gallus Road, Arlington
Moved away to Washington
Hey, ’round the bend
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again

Well, I went down to Washington
Then she went to Oregon
I skipped the ground and hopped a train
She’s back in Gallus Road again
Hey, I can’t win
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again

Well, the last I heard of Gypsy Lou
She’s in a Memphis calaboose
She left one too many a boy behind
He committed suicide
Hey, you can’t win
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
Gypsy Lou’s gone again
