Annie

Thank you Annie, I heard about you plenty I heard you dug him out of a hole Heard you gave him somewhere to go Heard you taught him how to love with his whole heart Love him anyway but I'm just writing you to say That I appreciate the things that you did Now I'm happy as a little kid You really helped me loosen the lid off the jar Thank you Annie I loved too many times Lost too many bets Left too many beds Broken up inside Sick and wondering why I can't find a man But now here I am, happy as can be You gave that to me, Annie Never thought I'd ever find somebody I could weather Any kind of terrible storm with A lot of it I know he was born with But I believe that you gave him more of it His mama told me when he left you he was lonely And I'm sure it had to be hard on you I'm sure your love was beautiful, too But I'm grateful that the morning is new Thank you Annie I loved too many times Lost too many bets Left too many beds Broken up inside Sick and wondering why I can't find a man But now here I am, happy as can be You gave that to me, Annie Annie
