Benny Spellman - We Sing The Blues/New Orleans Our Home Town

Fortune Teller

Went to a fortune-teller
To have my fortune read
I didn't know what to tell her
I had a dizzy feeling in my head

Said she'd take a look at my palm
She said, "Son, do you feel kind of warm?"
She looked into her crystal ball
And said, "You're in love, love"

Said it could not be so
I'm not with all the girls I know
She said when the next one arrives
You be looking into her eyes

I left there in a hurry
Looking forward to my big surprise
The next day I discovered
All that the fortune-teller told me were lies

I hurried back down to that woman
Mad as I could be
I told her I didn't see nobody
Why she made a fool out of me

Then something struck me
As if it came from up above
While looking at the fortune-teller
I fell in love

Now I'm a fortune-teller
I'm married to the fortune-teller
We happy as we can be
And now I give my fortune tool for free
