Van Morrison Lyrics

"Caravan" lyrics


And the caravan is on it's way
I can hear the merry gypsies play
Mama mama look at Emma Rose
She's a-playin with her radio
so lets go say La, la, la, la...

And the caravan has all my friends
They will stay with me until the end
Gypsy Robin, Sweet Emma Emma Emma Rose
Tell me everything I need to know
La, la, la...

Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
because I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you

Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher radio
Turn it up, just enough, so you know, radio
La, la, la, la...

And the caravan is painted red and white
That means ev'rybody's staying overnight
Barefoot gypsy player round the campfire sing and play
And a woman tells us of her ways
everybody sing La, la, la, la...

Turn up your radio and let me hear the song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down to what is really wrong
I long to hold you tight so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night I shall reveal you
Turn it up, turn it up, little bit higher, radio
Turn it up, just enough, so you know it's got soul
Radio, radio turn it up, hum
La, la, la, la...

take me down to the river baby, and wash my hands,
wash my feet take me down to the river darlin,
and lay with me where the sun dont sleep,
i said sweet baby, oh tonight i shall feel you
