Oh, the Gypsy Moth is a mighty high flyer, sailing on an inland sea
You are the object of my desire, the sun and the moon to me
And I believe in love and you know that you keep me from feeling blue
Yeah, you make me happy when everything I do gets me in trouble

But river can rock, river can roll
River can carry you down to the sea

Ramblin' Jack had a woman he loved, but the woman didn't love Jack back
She took his smile, She took his child, She took everything he had
River was the name she used. You know, she kept him so damn confused
She made him unhappy and everything she did got him in trouble

But river could rock, river could roll
River could carry Jack down to the sea

Many long years have come and gone since John F. Kennedy died
I'm not sure but what that man was downright crucified
By the same bad guy's still telling lies, you know they keep us used and abused
They make us unhappy and everything they do gets us in trouble

But river could rock, river could roll
River could carry us down to the sea

The black raccoon by the light of the moon heard the music playing soft and low
And the songs we sang made the nighttime ring, and the raccoon loved the show
He went back and told his friends, "You know them humans who live on the edge of the forest
They all had a party, and man, they really played my kind of music!"

Sang, "river could rock, river could roll
River could carry me down to the sea"

And the Gypsy Moth is a mighty high flyer, sailing on land and sea
You are the object of my desire, the sun and the moon to me
I believe in love and you know that you keep me from feeling blue
And you make me happy, when everything I do gets me in trouble

Everything I do gets me in trouble
Everything I do gets me in trouble

 

 

집에 뭔가의 알집같은 게 보여서 동정해보니 매미나방 알집임.

설마 매미나방에 대한 노래가 있나 찾아봤는데 있음.

그런데 별로 매미나방과는 상관없는 내용이고, 

집시 나방은 매미나방의 다른 명칭인데, 미국에서는 또다른 나방을 지칭하는 게 아닐까 함.
