   [Verse 1]
APowdered my nose in Alabama,DOut on a limb

BIt always works the Eold, old trick
BI got away just Din the nick of Etime, that's E7why 
   [Verse 2]
AI powdered my nose in Oklahoma,DOver the top
AI wasted away in New Orleans,DI couldn't stop
BDown in the alley ,Ehappy dust
BMe and Romona we was Egettin' bust
BI got away just Din the nick of Etime, that's E7why
   [Chorus]
I got the Anickname the gypsy roadhog
On the ECalifornia trail
I gotta Dkeep my wheels movin' on
I gotta kBmeep me outta jEail

A    D
A    D   E   E7
   [Verse 3]
APowdered my nose in San Francisco,DDown on the bay
AIt went to my head down in New York City,DI was blasted away
BAnd two ugly scuts Ebust in the room
BThey took away my little Esilver spoon
BI got away just Din the nick of Etime, that's E7why 
   [Chorus]
I got the Anickname the gypsy roadhog
On the ECalifornia trail
I gotta Dkeep my wheels movin' on
I gotta kBmeep me outta jEail

DKeep turnin', GAypsy Roadhog
On the BCalifornia tErail        To Fade
