I've been a gypsy 
For a thousand years. 
A victim of circumstance. 
I go wherever my destiny calls. 
I'm caught in a game of chance. 

I stand on the outside 
Looking at love. 
I wanna get inside. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking at love. 
Just trying to get inside. 

No fame or fortune, 
No luck of the draw. 
When I dance with Queen of Hearts. 
A jack of all trades. 
But, a loser in love. 
It's tearing my soul apart. 

Still I stand on the outside 
Looking at love. 
I wanna get inside. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking in. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking at love. 
Just trying to get inside. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking in. 

(Solo) 

The jack of diamonds 
An' the ace of spades 
Try to use me, and to abuse me. 
It seems the dealer 
Wont give me a chance. 
I'm victim of circumstance. 

So I stand on the outside 
Looking at love 
I wanna get inside. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking in. 
So I stand on the outside 
Looking at love 
Just trying to get inside. 
I stand on the outside 
Looking in...
