Lyrics

I'm known by many different names
My good friend, Will
Calls me "Puck" and "Robin Goodfellow"
I follow the gypsy faerie queen
I follow the gypsy faerie queen
She walks the length and breadth of England
Singing her song, using her wand
To help and heal the land
And the creatures on it
She's dressed in rags of moleskin
And wears a crown of rowan berries on her brow
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I follow, follow, follow
The gypsy faerie queen
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
We exist, exist, exist
In the twilight in-between
She bears a blackthorn staff
To help her in her walking
I only listen to her sing
But, I never hear her talking
Anymore
'Though once she did
'Though once she did
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I follow, follow, follow
My gypsy faerie queen
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
We exist, exist, exist
In the twilight in-between
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
And I follow, follow, follow
My gypsy faerie queen
(Ooh-ooh-ooh)
We exist, exist, exist
In the country in-between
Me and my gypsy queen
Written by: Marianne Faithfull, Nick Cave
