Why do you fly on the dusky dawn,
So far from home, Zingara?
Why do you sleep under stranger stars,
By stranger fires, Zingara?
It calls me beyond the wild
So strange are the old home fires
Burning, burning, burning, burning
Blue blue gone, gone gone
We're going down, down,
Yeah we're going down
Dancing down on Corduroy Road
Down, down, yeah we're going down
Dancing, dancing down
Dancing, dancing down
They laughed in your face, they ranted and raved
And cursed your name, Zingara
A sad sad day with hell to pay
You're so in a cage, Zingara
It calls me beyond the wild
So strange are the old home fires
Burning, burning, burning, burning
Blue blue gone, gone gone
We're going down, down,
Yeah we're going down
Dancing down on Corduroy Road
Down, down, yeah we're going down
Dancing, dancing down
Dancing, dancing down
