Rinfy The Gypsy

	I fell in love with Rinfy the gypsy.
	He said when I grew up he'd marry me,
	Carry me away on his steed.

		"Don't worry, my baby!
		Don't die, my funny little darling!
		I'm going away for a little while,
		And shouldn't be gone for very long."

	Ooh, then I really fell for Geoffrey, our gardener.
	He said he'd marry me, too.
	Oh, and I believed him, just like a fool.

		"Don't worry, my honey!
		Don't die, my funny little doll!
		I'm going away for a little while.
		Shouldn't be gone for very long."
		(Ooh, long, long, long ...)

			Playing canasta in c-cold rooms,
			Playing canasta in cold rooms,
			Playing canasta upstairs, downstairs,
			And in my lover's...ooh...

	I met a boy who took me upstairs,
	Then took me in his arms
	and told me I comforted him, uh-huh.

		"Don't worry, my dear,
		Don't cry, you weird little stranger.
		I'm going away.
		You probably won't ever see me again."

	Oh, yes, I know, I'm always falling,
	Gazing at hazy goldfish in your swimming eyes.
	How could I not lie there with you?

		"Don't worry, my darling!
		Don't die, my silly little baby!
		I'm going away for a little while,
		And shouldn't be gone for very long."
		(Ooh, long, long, long!)

			Playing canasta in c-cold rooms,
			Playing canasta in cold rooms,
			Playing canasta upstairs, downstairs,
			And in my lover's...ooh...
