about

According to the recording, I wrote this in 2011, but had no recollection of this when I heard it. It sure is fun to play.

lyrics

Little Annie we’ve had more trouble
Ever since you came to town
You’ve been walking up the avenue
You’ve turned us upside down
The trouble is your father
Is meaner than a springtime bear
When we watch you walking by
You should see his stare

They say he killed a man in Georgia
Put him in the ground
And when that posse came after him
He took that posse down
Little Annie we’ve got trouble
And trouble’s ain’t hard to find
I wanna take you down to the courthouse square
Just to make you mine

But little Annie there’s your brother
Slippier than a serpant’s tongue
They say he even scares your father
And he’s out here on the run
Little Annie it’s a mystery
Just how you came to be
Because when I saw your mother
I wished the sun would’ve blinded me

Little Annie we’ve had more trouble
Ever since you came to town
You’ve been walking up the avenue
You’ve turned us upside downLittle Annie I’ve an idea
It just came to me
And we can run through that mountain pass
And take to the sea
