The Gypsy - Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
Written by:Gordon Lightfoot[00:00:00]
Step inside my tent said she I'd like to read you palm[00:00:00]
Leave your dollar in the jar this won't take very long[00:00:05]
Leave the circus noise behind close your eyes relax your mind[00:00:10]
I'll tell you if you should quit now or if you should go on[00:00:15]
Then I said now what do you see[00:00:21]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:00:23]
Where'll I go what'll I be[00:00:26]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:00:28]
She threw some sawdust in the air and her hands began to shake[00:00:32]
She told me the town where I was born she almost knew the date[00:00:36]
She lit a candle with her eyes and then she made the table rise[00:00:41]
She took the dollar from the jar and then she guessed my weight[00:00:46]
And then I said now what do you see[00:00:52]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:00:54]
You are so old you are so wise[00:00:57]
Deedlee dumb deedlee dy[00:01:00]
Give me a sign tell it to me[00:01:02]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:01:04]
Then she spoke most quietly[00:01:07]
Oh deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:01:09]
When you we a child at school they taught you quite a lot[00:01:13]
You were told when you should speak and when you should not[00:01:18]
You were taught to read and write to take your lessons home at night[00:01:22]
A little knowledge serves you well but the golden rule does not[00:01:27]
And then I said now what do you mean[00:01:33]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:01:35]
Where'll I go what'll I be[00:01:38]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:01:40]
Then when I came home that night tonight we can bed[00:01:44]
I thought of that old gypsy and the words that she had said[00:01:48]
And now I see with due respect the more we learn the worse we get[00:01:53]
So if you feel you've no regrets go have your fortune read[00:01:58]
And then I said now what do you see[00:02:04]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:02:07]
Where'll I go what'll I be[00:02:09]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:02:11]
You are so old you are so wise[00:02:14]
Deedlee dumb deedlee dy[00:02:17]
Give me a sign tell it to me[00:02:19]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:02:21]
Where'll I go what'll I be[00:02:24]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:02:26]
You are so old you are so wise[00:02:29]
Deedlee dumb deedlee dy[00:02:31]
Give me a sign tell it to me[00:02:34]
She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee[00:02:36]
