Intro:

We were ver -y hap -py, well at least I thought we were. Can some -bod -y tell me what's got in -to her?

A house, a home, a fam -i -ly, a man that loves her so; Who'd be -lieve she'd leave us to join the bur -lesque -show,

 

Part 1:

Oh, Say has an -y -bod -y seen my Sweet Gyp -sy Rose?

Here's her pic -ture when she was my Sweet Ma -ry Jo,

Now she's got rings on her fin -gers and bells on her toes

Say has an -y -bod -y seen my Sweet Gyp -sy Rose?

(repeat part 1)

 

Part 2:

Oh, ba -by, ba -by won -cha come home?

Say we all miss you, And ev -'ry night we kiss your pic -ture.

Oh, Say has an -y bod -y seen my Sweet Gyp -sy Rose?

Here's her pic -ture when she was my Sweet Ma -ry Jo.

Now she's got rings on her fin -gers and bells on her toes.

Say has an -y -bod -y seen my Sweet Gyp -sy Rose?

So take those rings off your fing -ers and bells off your toes.

Say has an -y -bod -y seen my, now you know just what I mean by,

Has an -y -bod -y seen my Gyp -sy Rose?
