Annalee Songtext

von Yonder Mountain String Band

Annalee woke up every morning at the crack of dawn
To the screamin inside her head
And it was always worse than it really was
And she could ruin things for everyone

Annalee checked out every mornin soon as she got up
Sometimes she changed her clothes
But she never looked as good
As she thought she did
And it never was
The way she said it was at all

Don't you know you gotta tune her out
Or she'll wind up under your skin
She does it again and again
Oh Annalee's you got two good eyes
But you just don't

Annalee was already broken when you picked her up
Yeah everyone knows you were kind
But she was never home
When she said she'd be
Of course home to her
Was just, was just some other word to rhyme

Don't you know you gotta tune her out
Or she'll wind up under your skin
She does it again and again
Oh Annalee's you got two good eyes
But you just don't

Annalee always played it like she had it figured out
And stopped short of singin' along
But once you seen her shine
You had to blink your eyes
How could you believe that you,
That you'd seen the hand of god

Don't you know you gotta tune her out
Or she'll wind up under your skin
She does it again and again
Oh Annalee's you got two good eyes
But you just don't
Hmmmmhmmmhmm
