"Anna Lee" lyrics

"Anna Lee"

Anna Lee
I think I wanna leave our little town
Everything here seems to bring me down
If I stay I'll end up in the ground

Come with me
I'll take you any place you wanna go
The crops are dry and the rivers running low
There's a better life for us on down the road

Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her, I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn we'll be gone

Anna Lee
I saw a vulture circling my home
Don't let the sun set past our hour glass to roam
Cause the sands won't offer hands anymore
And the clocks are turning faster than before

Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her, I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn we'll be gone

Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her, I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn we'll be gone
