Gypsy's dance around the campfire, shook their tambourines 

They were waiting for the dust of an outlaw, Sundown was his name 

As the midnight hour grew closer, and the sky begins to fall 

You can see their shadow by the light of the moon 

They had heard the gypsys call 

CHORUS 

Ooh, ooh, Hurry Sundown

She had hair as black as darkness, eyes of emerald green 

And her voice was soft and tender, oooh she could sing 

She will sing no more, or dance again or shake a tambourine 

They had taken her away, she was dead and gone, hear the gypsies sing 

CHORUS 

Silver devils in his holsters, stars strapped to his heels 

There was fire in his eyes, they say that he was dressed to kill 

He had hands as fast as lightning, a heart as cold as steel 

CHORUS 

(Repeat first verse)
