Annie

In my mind I see you there,
With your raven eyes,
And your coal black hair,
Down on Tchoupitoulas Street,
On your balcony,
Oh Annie come back home to me,

I came down from Mont Claire and,
Met the devil there,
He asked me the way back home,
Got down on all fours,
I said, "Mine or yours,"
Oh Annie come back home to me,

[Chorus]
Oh I love you can't you see

I heard the song you sang,
And heard your banjo ring,
A thousand times or more,
Underneath the cellar door,
Of your mamas store,
Oh Annie come back home to me

[Chorus]
Oh I love you can't you see

The merchant and his son who plays,
The accordion,
Sown at the French cafe,
Sounded so good tonight,
I found the morning light,
Annie come back home to me,

[Chorus]
I love you can't you see

Remember that old Chinatown alley,
Making love neath those,
Robe Valley trees,
Back when we young and free,
Annie come back home to me,

[Chorus]
I love you can't you see
