Raising Sand

Went to the fortune teller
Had my fortune read
I didn’t know what to tell her
I had a dizzy feeling in my head


Then she took a look at my palm
She said son you feel kind of warm
She looked into her crystal ball
And said you’re in love


How could that be so
I thought of all the girls I know
She said when the next one arrives
You’ll be looking 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 a lie


I hurried back down to that woman
As mad as I could be
I said I didn’t see nobody
Why had 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
’Cause I’m married to the fortune teller
I’m happy as we can be
Now I get my fortune told for free
