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
