pearl bailey - the gypsy goofed lyrics

the gypsy held my hand
and read my palm for me
she said that i’d be happy
but i’m sad as i can be
she told me that you love me
and said that you’d be true
but, darlin’, she was wrong
because you love somebody new

the gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
the gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
the gypsy must have been tipsy
’cause she goofed
by golly, she goofed

the gypsy said that i
should give my heart to you
i gave it to you, darlin’
and you broke it half in two
i asked her would you leavе me
the gypsy told me no
but, darlin’, shе deceived me
’cause you’re packing up to go
the gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
that gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
the gypsy must have been kinda tipsy
’cause she goofed
by golly, she goofed

i gave her silver
i gave her gold
i gave her all that tremblin’ hands
could hold
she took my silver
she took my gold
for the phoniest fortune
that was ever told
i can’t forget the way
she looked me in the eyes
and told me that our love
would never, never ever die
she told me not to worry
she told me not to fret
she said we’d soon be married
honey, we haven’t married yet

that gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
the gypsy goofed
by golly, she goofed
that gypsy must have been kinda tipsy
’cause she goofed
by golly, she goofed
let me tell ya, honey
the child goofed
by golly, she goofed
she made an awful mistake
i’m tellin’ ya
must have been that, uh, maybe
she was kinda tipsy
’cause she goofed
by golly, she goofed
(is that right?)
believe me, i… i… i crossed her palm
oh, i greased it very well
this child told me
some of the most fantastic tales
i tell ya
but she, uh, must have been kinda tipsy
’cause she goofed
by golly, she goofed
you know, that woman
didn’t tell me nothin’ right?
