Lyrics: Van Morrison. Caravan.

Now, the caravan is on it's way
I can hear the merry gypsy play
Mama-mama-mama-mama
Mama-mama-mama, look at Emma Rose
Emma Rose, Emmy Rose
She's a-playin with the short wave radio

And the caravan has all my friends, all my friends
And they stay me until, until the bitter
Gypsy Robin a Sweet Emma Rose, huh!
Tell me ev'rything, ev'rything I need to know

La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-da-da-da, da-da
Da-da, da-da-da-da-da

Turn up your radio
And let me hear that song
Switch on your electric light
Then we can get down
To what is really wrong

How long 'till I hold you in my arms
So I can, so I can feel you
Sweet lady of the night?
I shall and I will reveal you
Help you with, huh!

Turn it up, turn it up
Li'l bit higher, radio
Turn it up, turn it up, turn it up
So you know it's got soul

La-da-da, la-da-da
Da-da-da-da-da
La-da, da-da, da-da
Da-da-da

Jack, blow!

(instrumental & sax solo - Jack Schroer)

And the caravan is painted red and white
That means ev'rybody's staying overnight, overnight
And the barefoot gypsy boy
'Round the campfire, sing an' play
And the woman tells us of her ways

La-da-da-da, la-da-da
La-la-la-la
Da-dat-da-dat
Dat-dat-dat-dat, da-da-da

Turn up your radio
And let-a me, let-a me hear the song
Switch on your electric light

How long 'till I hold you in my arms
So I can, so I can feel you
Sweet lady, sweet lady of the night?
I shall and I will reveal you
Help you with

Turn it up, turn it up
Li'l bit higher, radio
Turn it up, so you know
It's got soul, it's got soul

So you know
So you know it's got
Soul
