Step inside my tent, said she, "I'd like to you palm" Leave the in the jar, this won't take very long Leave the circus noise behind, close your eyes, relax mind I'll tell you, if you should quit now or if you go on
I said, "Now what do ya see?" She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" Where'll I go, I be? She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee"
She threw some in the air and her hands began to shake She told me, the town where I was born, she knew the date She lit a candle with her eyes and then she made the rise She took the from the jar and then she guessed my weight
I said, "Now what do ya see?" She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" You are so old, you are so Deedlee-dum,
Give me a sign, it to me She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" Then she spoke quietly Deedlee-dum,
When you we a child at school they you quite a lot You were told when you speak and when you should not You were taught to read and write, to take your lessons home at A little serves you well but the golden rule does not
Then I said, "Now do ya see?" She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" I go, what'll I be? She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee"
Then when I came home night to lie in bed awake I of that old gypsy and the words that she had said And now I see with due respect, the more we the worse we get So if you you've no regrets, go have your fortune read
Then I said, "Now do ya see?" She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" You are so old, you are so Deedlee-dum,
Give me a sign, it to me She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" she spoke most quietly Deedlee-dum,
I go, what'll I be She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee" You are so old, you are so
Deedlee-dum, me a sign, tell it to me She said, "Deedlee-dum, deedlee-dee"
