I'm a gypsy. This is one of Shakira's songs in which she says 'I'm a gypsy'. Why does she say 'because I'm a gypsy'? What is her definition of 'a gypsy'? Thank you! Broke my heart Down the road Spend the weekend Sewing the pieces back on Crayons and dolls pass me by Walking gets too boring When you learn how to fly Not the homecoming kind Take the top off And who knows what you might find Won't confess all my sins You can bet I'll try it But I can't always win [Chorus] 'Cause I'm a gypsy But are you coming with me? I might steal your clothes And wear them if they fit me I never made agreements Just like a gypsy And I won't back down 'Cause life's already hurt me And I won't cry I'm too young to die If you're gonna quit me 'Cause I'm a gypsy ('Cause I'm a gypsy) [Verse 2] I can't hide what I've done Scars remind me Of just how far that I've come To whom it may concern Only run with scissors When you want to get hurt [Chorus] I said hey you You're no fool If you say 'NO' Ain't it just the way life goes? People fear what they don't know Come along for the ride (Oh yeah) Come along for the ride

It is using some of the stereotypes about gypsies as metaphors or her lifestyle. She said on British TV that she considers herself a 'mutt', a mongrel dog, in other words someone of mixed ethnic diversity, and she said that this is a theme in 'Gypsy'. Gypsies are seen as romantic and free (think Carmen); as well as stubborn and a little bit dishonest. Here's some more information on the song: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gypsy_(Shakira_song)
