[00:00:00] 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

[00:00:05] Leave your dollar in the jar this won't take very long

[00:00:10] Leave the circus noise behind close your eyes relax your mind

[00:00:15] I'll tell you if you should quit now or if you should go on

[00:00:21] Then I said now what do you see

[00:00:23] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:00:26] Where'll I go what'll I be

[00:00:28] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:00:32] She threw some sawdust in the air and her hands began to shake

[00:00:36] She told me the town where I was born she almost knew the date

[00:00:41] She lit a candle with her eyes and then she made the table rise

[00:00:46] She took the dollar from the jar and then she guessed my weight

[00:00:52] And then I said now what do you see

[00:00:54] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:00:57] You are so old you are so wise

[00:01:00] Deedlee dumb deedlee dy

[00:01:02] Give me a sign tell it to me

[00:01:04] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:01:07] Then she spoke most quietly

[00:01:09] Oh deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:01:13] When you we a child at school they taught you quite a lot

[00:01:18] You were told when you should speak and when you should not

[00:01:22] You were taught to read and write to take your lessons home at night

[00:01:27] A little knowledge serves you well but the golden rule does not

[00:01:33] And then I said now what do you mean

[00:01:35] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:01:38] Where'll I go what'll I be

[00:01:40] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:01:44] Then when I came home that night tonight we can bed

[00:01:48] I thought of that old gypsy and the words that she had said

[00:01:53] And now I see with due respect the more we learn the worse we get

[00:01:58] So if you feel you've no regrets go have your fortune read

[00:02:04] And then I said now what do you see

[00:02:07] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:02:09] Where'll I go what'll I be

[00:02:11] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:02:14] You are so old you are so wise

[00:02:17] Deedlee dumb deedlee dy

[00:02:19] Give me a sign tell it to me

[00:02:21] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:02:24] Where'll I go what'll I be

[00:02:26] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee

[00:02:29] You are so old you are so wise

[00:02:31] Deedlee dumb deedlee dy

[00:02:34] Give me a sign tell it to me

[00:02:36] She said deedlee dumb deedlee dee
