2011 Broadway Cast of Anything Goes
The Gypsy in Me
[EVELYN, spoken]
It's the Oakleigh family secret. There's something dark and savage in our blood. In mine especially.
(sung)
Long, long ago
So long ago
I hardly know when
My great-great-grandmother
Now and then
Stepped out with a gypsy
Of course you will say she was
A little bit tipsy
But tipsy, no, no
Of their love there wasn't a doubt
So I can't wait to get the stage all set
So I can let the gypsy in me out
Hiding away
There's a little bit of gypsy in me
That's never been found
Waiting its day
There's a little bit of gypsy in me
Just hanging around
Until that magical night
When the stars by their light
Give mystery to the sleeping lagoon
While a haunting guitar
Not too near, not too far
Gaily hums away
Strums away
A titillating tune
When I'm there in the dream
With the one in the world
I worship passionately
At the moment supreme
Will be shown the unknown
Gypsy in me
[Dance interlude.]
