[00:01.90]Step inside my tent said she I'd like to read you palm
[00:05.68]Leave the dollar in the jar this won't take very long
[00:10.32]Leave the circus noise behind close your eyes relax your mind
[00:15.14]I'll tell you if you should quit now or if you should go on
[00:21.55]Then I said now what do ya see
[00:23.70]She said deed lee dumb deed lee Dee
[00:26.27]Where I go what I be
[00:28.31]She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
[00:32.33]She threw some sawdust in the air and her hands began to shake
[00:36.77]She told me the town where I was born she almost knew the date
[00:41.46]She lit a candle with her eyes and then she made the table rise
[00:46.24]She took the dollar from the jar and then she guessed my weight
[00:52.76]Then I said now what do ya see
[00:54.84]She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee

[01:04.54]She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
[01:07.27]Then she spoke most quietly
[01:09.23]deed lee dumb deed lee dee
[01:13.35]When you we a child at school they taught you quite a lot
[01:17.98]You were told when you should speak and when you should not
[01:22.45]You were taught to read and write to take your lessons home at night
[01:27.17]A little knowledge serves you well but the golden rule does not
[01:33.46]Then I said now what do ya see

[01:40.40]She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
[01:44.33]Then when I came home that night to lie in bed awake
[01:49.00]I thought of that old gypsy and the words that she had said
[01:53.75]And now I see with due respect the more we learn the worse we get
[01:58.62]So if you feel you've no regrets go have your fortune read
[02:05.02]Then I said now what do ya see
[02:07.58]She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
