TAFFYROM
Taffy born a-rovin'
Taffy born a Rom
Taffy born a-rovin'
and always movin' on,
Taffy born a-rovin',
Taffy born a Rom,
Is Taffy always goin'
Always somewhere gone.
I am my father's daughter, I am the restless one.
Yeh, I was born to ramble and follow on the Rom.
To live the life a-driftin's an itchin' in my bones.
Taffy born to Gypsy is never stayin' home.
(chorus)
I married me a soldier, I married me a man
who spent his life a-goin' and fightin' for his land.
I followed him with children who learnt from early on,
Home is on the roamin' with Taffy born a Rom.
(chorus)
I am my mother's daughter, my life is much like hers.
I've spent the years a-shiftin' a halfways round this world.
This yearning to be wandering and never stoppin' long
Is written on the heart of this Taffy born a Rom.
(chorus)
