Lyrics:

Got me a postcard and a twenty dollar bill
I told you I'd meet you in Memphis if you bring me those pills
And I got high and I got dry for far too long
And the gypsy train to Houston is gonna take me along

They called me the wild card
And they called me their fool
I told them I'd bring 'em that money
If they'd get me back to you
And I got cash and I got robbed for all I own
And the gypsy train to Houston is gonna take me back home

I got clean and I got a steady job
No longer was I running from the emblems of the law
And I got clean and I got mean to the bone
And the gypsy train to Houston won't leave me alone

And the gypsy train to Houston won't leave me alone
