1968

Step inside my tent, said she
I'd like to read you palm
Leave your dollar in the jar
This won't take very long
Leave the circus noise behind
Close your eyes, relax your mind
I'll tell you if you should quit now
Or if you should go on

Then I said, now what do ya see
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
Where'll I go, what'll I be
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee

She threw some sawdust in the air
And her hands began to shake
She told me the town where I was born
She almost knew the date
She lit a candle with her eyes
And then she made the table rise
She took the dollar from the jar
And then she guessed my weight

Then I said, now what do ya see
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
You are so old, you are so wise
Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy
Give me a sign, tell it to me
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
Then she spoke most quietly
Oh, Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee

When you were a child at school
They taught you quite a lot
You were told when you should speak
And when you should not
You were taught to read and write
To take your lessons home at night
A little knowledge serves you well
But the golden rule does not

Then I said, now what do ya mean
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
Where'll I go, what'll I be
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee

Then when I came home that night
To lie awake in bed
I thought of that old gypsy
And the words that she had said
And now I see with due respect
The more we learn the worse we get
So if you feel you've no regrets
Go have your fortune read

Then I said, now what do ya see
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
Where'll I go, what'll I be
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
You are so old, you are so wise
Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy
Give me a sign, tell it to me
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee

Where'll I go, what'll I be
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
You are so old, you are so wise
Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dy
Give me a sign, tell it to me
She said, deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee
