Romany.
The city frets in the distance, lass, The city so grim and gray, A glare in the sky by night, my lass, And a blot on the sky by day; But we are out on the long white road, And under the wide free sky, And the song that was born in my heart today Will sing there till I die. The long white road and the wide free sky, And the city far away; A good-night kiss in the twilight, lass, And a kiss at the break of day; For light are the loads we bear, my lass, By highway and hill and grove, And the sunlight is all for life, my lass, And the starlight all for love.
