Benny Spellman - Fortune Teller

Went to a fortune teller
To have my fortune read
I didn't 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?
And she looked into her crystal ball
And said you're in love

I said it could not be so
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
All 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
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 happy fellow
I'm married to the fortune teller
We're happy as we can be
And now I get my fortune told for free
