LYRICS
I went to the 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
Said “Sonny you feel kind of warm”
She looked into her crystal ball
And said “I see lo–ove.”

I said it could not be so,
Not with all the girls I know.
She said when the next one arrives
Take a look into her eyes.

I left there in a hurry
Looking forward to my big surprise
The next thing I discovered
The fortune teller told me lies

So I ran back to that woman
Mad as I could be
Said I didn’t see nobody
Why’d she made a fool out of me?

At last something shook me
As if it came down from above
While looking at the fortune teller
I fell in love

Now I’m a happy fella
I’m married to the fortune teller
We’re as happy as we can be
- And what’s more I get my fortune told for free (spoken)
