I met Annie Ford out on the Great West road, | |
soaking through and thumbing for a ride. | |
She sat there on her suitcase in her dancing dress. | |
I would've been a fool to pass her by. | |
And as we sped across the night | |
We told our stories by the light | |
Of the stars that lead us home | |
Each time we strayed. | |
Me and Annie talked till dawn, | |
when we reached her old man's farm. | |
And I said so long; guess I'll be on my way. | |
I started meeting Annie by the old sawmill, | |
wasting time and drinking in the day. | |
Courting her was easy with her smile like that. | |
Loving her was easy in the night. | |
Well, me and Annie set a date, | |
and had a wedding in the spring. | |
Man, you should've heard that old church choir sing. | |
It didn't take us very long, | |
till the baby came along. | |
Well we named him Tom and settled into life. | |
But at night death came around, | |
and Annie left without a sound. | |
But the trouble with this life, is it doesn't last so long | |
And your love can be divided overnight. | |
Now it's only me and Tom | |
Now our wife and mother's gone | |
Well I told the Lord ' I just don't think it's right'. |
