Fair Annie

(album: Rolling Golden Holy - 2022)

1, 2, 3, 4

Who's gonna hold you dear
Who's gonna kiss ya
Who's gonna love you dear
Who's gonna miss ya

So long, my Annie I'm gone
For a year and a day
To be rolling around and wandering down
Seems a long time away

My Annie had a piece of silk
Hanging on a silvery pin
Then she pulled it to her watery eyes
Yeah she walked out and in

Who's gonna hold you dear
Who's gonna kiss ya
Who's gonna love you dear
Who's gonna miss ya

My Annie, with her little right hand
Hanging on a feathery pen
She wrote to me a letter so sweet
"When you coming home again?"

Bear the news away to my love
I'm on my way to glory
If I get there before you do
I'm sending back for thee
My true love, my Annie

Who's gonna hold you dear
Who's gonna kiss ya
Who's gonna love you dear
Who's gonna miss ya
