Words & Music by Don McLean

The spirit of Fatima still rules the Earth

She knows your future, she knows what it's worth

Sister Fatima has God-given powers

And on 42nd Street a shop that sells flowers

Is her palace, come and be healed

She knows all your business, your health and your ills

She'll counsel your weddings, divorces and wills

For full restoration five dollars an hour

And with each consultation a free holy flower

And if she likes you, well you can have two

And I came from nowhere like you and your friend

My searching and wandering went on without end

My future was dim, my spirit was crushed

In one sacred moment my questions were hushed

I'm a servant of fate in this garden of truth

A humble recruit of the taffeta booth

Where all things are known but few are revealed

Where sins are forgotten and sickness is healed

For five dollars the flower is free
