[00:42.59] Annan Water, you loom so deep and wide
[00:52.50] I would cross over if you would stem the tide
[01:01.34] I'll build a boat that I might ford the other side
[01:11.16] To reach the farthest shore where my true love lies in wait for me
[01:22.65] In wait for me
[01:26.76] In wait for me
[01:31.86] In wait for me
[01:35.39]
[01:39.08] O grey river, your waters ramble wild
[01:48.56] The horses shiver and bite against the bridle
[01:57.73] But I will cross if mine own horse is pulled from me
[02:07.66] Though my mother cries that if I try, I sure will drowned be
[02:19.16] Will drowned be
[02:23.66] Will drowned be
[02:28.29] Will drowned be
[02:32.53]
[02:33.83] And if you calm, and let me pass
[02:42.96] You may render me a wreck when I come back
[02:52.29] So calm you waves and slow the churn
[03:01.59] And you may have my precious bones on my return
[03:09.74]
[03:32.54] Annan Water, O hear my true love's call
[03:41.40] Here her holler above your water's pall
[03:51.08] God that I could, that my two arms could give me wing
[03:59.90] And I would cross your breadth and wrap my breast about her amber ring
[04:12.50] Her amber ring
[04:17.05] Her amber ring
[04:21.59] Her amber ring
[04:25.52]
[04:26.51] But if you calm and let me pass
[04:35.66] You may render me a wreck when I come back
[04:44.55] So calm you waves and slow the churn
[04:54.51] You may have my precious bones on my
[05:02.62] On my return
[05:11.17]
