Fortune Teller
Thee Sixpence Lyrics

Went to the fortune teller
I went to see a soothsayer

To have my fortune read
To learn what fate has in store for me

I didn't what to tell her
I didn't know what to say to her

I had a dizzy feeling in my head
I was feeling disoriented

Said she'd take a look at my palm
The fortuneteller said she would examine my hand

Said "Son, do you feel kind of warm?"
She asked if I was experiencing warmth

And she looked into her crystal ball
She peered into her sphere of divination

Said "You're in love"
She announced that I am in love

Said it could not be so
I didn't believe her

Not with all the girls I know
Since I know many women, I was skeptical

Said when the next one arrives
She declared that when the next lady comes

Looking into her eyes
If I gaze into her eyes

I left there in a hurry
I departed hastily

Much to my big surprise
To a great shock to me

The next thing I discovered
What I realized next was

The fortune teller told me lies
The seer deceived me

So I ran back to that woman
I went back to the fortuneteller

Mad as I could be
Extremely angry

Told her I didn't see nobody
I informed her that I hadn't seen anybody

How she made a fool out of me
I felt duped by her

At last something shook me
Finally, something triggered me

As if it came down from above
Almost as if it was a divine message

And now the fortune teller
And now the fortuneteller

And I fell in love
And I fell in love with her
