Teenage Mary said to Uncle Dave
I sold my soul, must be saved
Gonna take a walk down to Union Square

You never know who you're gonna find there

You gotta run, run, run, run, run

Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you

Tell you whatcha do

Marguerita Passion had to get her fix

She wasn't well, she was getting sick
Went to sell her soul, she wasn't high
Didn't know, thinks she could buy it


And she would run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two

Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do


Seasick Sarah had a golden nose
Hobnail boots wrapped around her toes

When she turned blue, all the angels screamed
They didn't know, they couldn't make the scene


She had to run, run, run, run, run
Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run

Gypsy Death and you
Tell you whatcha do


Beardless Harry, what a waste
Couldn't even get a small-town taste
Rode the trolleys down to forty-seven

Figured he was good to get himself to heaven

Cause he had to run, run, run, run, run

Take a drag or two
Run, run, run, run, run
Gypsy Death and you

Tell you whatcha do
