作曲:Gordon Lightfoot
Step inside my tent said
she I'd like to read you palm
Leave the 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 deed lee dumb deed lee Dee
Where I go what I be
She said deed lee dumb deed lee 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 deed lee dumb deed lee dee
You are so old you are so wise
deed lee dumb deed lee dy
Give me a sign tell it to me
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
Then she spoke most quietly
deed lee dumb deed lee dee
When you we 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 see
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
Where I go what I be
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
Then when I came home
that night to lie in bed awake
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 deed lee dumb deed lee dee
Where I go what I be
deed lee dumb deed lee dy
You are so old you are so wise
deed lee dumb deed lee dy
Give me a sign tell it to me
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
Where I go what I be
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
You are so old you are so wise
deed lee dumb deed lee dy
Give me a sign tell it to me
She said deed lee dumb deed lee dee
