Fortune Teller

Allen Toussaint

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

She took a hold on my palm

She said, "Son, you feel kind of warm"

And then she looked into a crystal ball

She said, "You're in love"

I said, "How could that be so?

I'm not friendly with the girls I know"

She said when the next one arrives

You gotta look into her eyes

I left there in a hurry

Looking forward to my big surprise

The next day I discovered

That the fortune teller told me lies

I rushed straight back to that woman

Just as mad as I could be

I said I didn't see nobody

Why'd she made a fool of me

Then something struck me

Like lightning from up above

While looking at the fortune teller

I fell in love

Now I'm a happy fella

I'm married to the fortune teller

I'm as happy as I can be

Now I get my fortunes told for free
