Fortune Tellin' Man |
Oh fortune tellin' man |
Please tell me if you can |
Where where my papa was last night |
He plays harp fiddle in a band uptown |
Oh tell me can it be that he’s been fiddling around |
Oh fortune tellin' man |
Please tell me how I stand |
Is my papa treating me wrong or right? |
Last night he was as strong as a lion when he left the flat |
Came home this morning just as weak as a cat |
Oh fortune tellin' man |
Please tell me if you can |
Where my papa was last night |
Don’t tell him where I was |
Just tell me where he was last night |
Oh fortune tellin' man |
Please tell me where I stand |
Is my papa treating me wrong or right? |
My papa never would leave me |
All alone and blue |
Especially when there was a little homework to do |
Oh fortune tellin' man |
Please tell me if you can |
Where my papa was last night |
Don’t tell him where I was |
Just tell me where he was last night |
