歌曲歌詞
The old ways are changing you cannot deny
The day of the traveller is over
There is nowhere to go and there is nowhere to buy
So farewell to the life of the rover
Farewell to the tent and the old caravan
To the tinker the gipsy the travelling man
Farewell to the life of the rover
Farewell to the ken and the travelling tongue
Farewell to the romany talking
The buying and selling the old fortune telling
The knock at the door and the hawking
Farewell to the tent and the old caravan
To the tinker the gipsy the travelling man
Farewell to the life of the rover
You've got to move fast to keep up with the times
For these days a man cannot donder
There's a buy-lord to say you must be on your way
And another to say you can't wander
Farewell to the tent and the old caravan
To the tinker the gipsy the travelling man
Farewell to the life of the rover
The old ways are passing and soon will be gone
For progress is eye a big factor
It's scent to afflict us and when they avict us
They tow us away with a tractor
Farewell to the tent and the old caravan
To the tinker the gipsy the travelling man
Farewell to the life of the rover
