Little Annie

A.P. Carter

Once more Little Annie I must leave you
We shall part at the end of the lane
For you promised me Little Annie
You'd be waiting when the springtime comes again

(chorus)

When the springtime comes on the mountain
And the wildflowers scatter o're the plains
I shall watch for the leaves to return to the trees
And I'll be waiting when the springtime comes again

When the sun shines down on the mountain
And the wild sheep wander all alone
And the birds and the bees are a'humming
Makes me think that springtime won't be very long

(repeat chorus)

Now the springtime has come Little Annie
I am on my way to the lane
Where you promised me Little Annie
You'd be waiting when the springtime comes again

(repeat chorus)
