Lyrics Gogol Bordello

Gogol Bordello

My Gypsy Auto Pilot

I came back to my hometown incognito

To forget about it all

Suddenly, I heard "hey there papito-pito-pito

You don't ever give a call"

whapba bup bup ba

whapba bup bup ba

whapba bup bup ba

whapba bup bup ba

Remember we used to skip school together

Said to me drunk girl, police man

Now, where have you been all my life

I've been skipping school since then, yeah

I've been watching trains

Swiftly rolling by

I've been jumping them

Without long goodbyes

To uncover rules of life

And how to break them well

And the key to my gypsy auto pilot

And my story to tell, hey!

Whapba bup bup ba

Whapba bup bup ba

Whapba bup bup ba

Whapba bup bup ba

So we ran to outskirts of our town

To the working man dance hall

Where all night we played piano-yano-yano

Off the chairs about to fall

Then we climbed the ladder to the attic

Where once i showed her my first song

Above the street where all them crazy dreamers

Still talking nonsense all night long

Whoa-o whoa-o

Nonsense all night long

Whoa-o whoa-o

Still writing their first song

I've been watching trains

Swiftly rolling by

I've been jumping them

Without long goodbyes

To uncover rules of life

And how to break them well

And the key to my gypsy auto pilot

And my story to tell, hey!

And we laugh, and we cry

And we recited sacred text

And we rose and we fell

And then we said, ok what's next?

But, if you keep on watching trains

Swiftly, rolling by

One day you will be gone

Without long goodbyes

To uncover rules of life

And how to break them well

And the key to your gonzo turbo gypsy auto pilot

And your story to tell

Story to tell
