Gypsies danced around the campfire
Shook their tambourines
They were waitin' for the ghost of an outlaw
Sundown was his name
As the midnight hour grew closer and the sky began to fall
You could see his shadow in the light of the moon
He had heard the gypsies' call
She had hair as black as darkness
Her eyes were emerald green
Oh her voice was soft and tender
Ooh she loved to sing
She will sing no more or dance again
Or shake her tambourine
They had taken her away she was dead and gone
You could hear the gypsies sing
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown (the gypsies cry Sundown)
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown (oh the gypsies cry)
Hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown (the gypsies cry Sundown)
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown (oh the gypsies cry)
Silver devils in his holsters
Stars strapped to his heels
There was fire in his eyes
They say that he was dressed to kill
He had hands as fast as lightning
Heart as cold as steel
He had come for the one that took her life
To lie him in Boot Hill
Gypsies danced around the campfire
They shook their tambourines
They were waitin' for the ghost of an outlaw
Sundown was his name
As the midnight hour grew closer and the sky began to fall
You could see their shadows in the light of the moon
They had heard the gypsie's call
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
Ooh, ooh hurry Sundown
