Tea Lake is a tiny lake about 20 minutes outside of Halifax along Purcells Cove Road. It's unofficially called Tea Lake because minerals in the water have coloured the water like well-steeped tea.

Tea Lake Gypsy

Come and we go
Everyone’s a gypsy girl
Nowhere to go?
There’s a place we know called Tea Lake

Driving along the highway
Dapples washing over us
We’re on our way
To a little place we know called Tea Lake

Gypsy do the swirling dance
Brother she won’t need her clothes
Water colour of Red Rose
Sip the tea it’s delicious

Come and we go
Everyone’s a gypsy boy
Nowhere to go?
There’s a little place we know called Tea Lake

Diving beneath the water
Ripples washing over us
We’ve found our way
To a little place we know called Tea Lake

Gypsy do the swirling dance
Sister he won’t need his pose
Water colour of Red Rose
Sip the tea it’s delicious
