Spanish Harlem Incident

Gypsy gal  the hands of Harlem
Cannot hold you to its heat
Your temperature's too hot for taming
Your flaming feet burn up the street
I am homeless come and take me
Into reach of your rattling drums
Let me know babe about my fortune
Down along my restless palms
Gypsy gal  you got me swallowed
I have fallen far beneath
Your pearly eyes so fast and slashing
An' your flashing diamond teeth
The night is pitch black  come and make my
Pale face fit in to place ah  please
I gotta know babe  I'm nearly drowning
If it's you  my lifelines trace
I been wond'rin' all about me
Ever since I seen you there
On the cliffs of your wildcat charms I'm riding
I know I'm 'round you but I don't know where
You have slayed me  you have made me
I got to laugh halfways off my heels
I got to know babe  will you surround me
So I can tell if I'm really real
