(lala , lalala, lala, lala, lalala, lala) (lalalala, lalalala, lala, lalala, lalala) lalala, lalalala, lala, lalala, lalalala, lala) lalala, lalalala, lala, lalala. lalala) (music and repeat) [Gonna find me a gypsy and get my fortune told,] [I'm gonna say, please missus gypsy, tell me what the future will hold] (Tell us what the future will hold.)
