Gypsy Rose and I Don't Give a Curse - The Kingston Trio

Down where Salty Sam from Turkistan had organized a marching band of Mau Maus

in the Crazy Horse Saloon.

They harmonized together singing verses of the netherworld of darkness in an unfamiliar tune

And before the night was over they was a-floatin' down the river with their

belly buttons winkin' at the moon.

Chorus:

Oh, isn’t it the same the whole world over?

People seem to go from bad to worse.

Whether you’re a fighter or a lover, Gypsy Rose and I don’t give a curse.

Seven sorry sisters from the Sun Canal sorority went strolling on a summer

afternoon

Down where little Ricky Vanderpool would work his way through Sunday school

playing his electricfied kazoo

They’d hide their best to back it, not intending to distract it,

singing seven kinds of sorry out of tune,

And before the night was over they was a-floatin' down the river with their

belly buttons winkin' at the moon.

(Chorus, twice)
