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
