Gypsies, Tramps and Thieves - Cher

On the 6th of November 1971 Cher began a two week reign at #1 on the US single charts.

This is a song that tells the story of a girl that travels around the Southern States of America in a traveling show. Her Mother is a dancer and her father does whatever he can to earn a Dollar. When she's 16 her family take in a 21 man and the two have an affair, the next thing she knows she is pregnant and the young man is gone! http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WuUh8C7A_BI


"I never had schoolin' but he taught me well
With his smooth southern style
Three months later, I'm a gal in trouble
And I haven't seen him for a while
I haven't seen him for a while"
