(Hold On) Annie Mae

Goin' downtown to see my sister today
Goin' downtown to see my sister, oh Mae
Well I'm goin' downtown, yes I'm goin' downtown
Well I'm goin' downtown to see my sister today
CHORUS:
Hold on, Annie Mae, hold on, Annie Mae
Hold on, Annie Mae, hold on, Annie Mae
Hold on, hold on, is this my Annie Mae?
Ain't nobody home to answer the door
Maybe my Annie don't live here no more
Well I must hang around, every night a-downtown
Well I'm lookin' around to see my sister today
(chorus)
She didn't leave nothin', no trace a-behind
She didn't leave numbers for me to be fine
So I'm leavin' downtown, yes I'm leavin' downtown
Well I'm leavin' downtown, I miss my sister today
(chorus x2)
(instrumental, same pattern as verses, fading out)
