Anna Lee Lyrics

Anna Lee
Baby don't make me go away
We don't talk about it anymore
Anna Lee
Baby don't make me leave
We don't talk to each other anymore
On a two lane highway
On a summer day
Me and Anna Lee
Rolling down the highway
In a haze
Of renegade and gypsy schemes
Singing our Gypsy love songs
Living on Gypsy Dreams

And I step on the gas
I can feel our hearts race
As long as Anna Lee was there
You know home was any place
On a getaway
From the things that we had done
You know me and my ruthless angel's heart melted into one

Anna Lee
Baby don't make me go away
We don't talk about it anymore
Anna Lee
Baby don't make me leave
We don't talk to each other anymore

You ain't all alone in this angry ugly world
If there is one girl you can hold My old man's big mistake laid my mama in an early grave
And when he died
He died alone
(don't wanna die alone)

Around South Caroline
I let her take the fall
I ran out of cigarettes
Robbed me a liquor store
Anna Lee hadn't got to the car yet
When I heard them sirens wailing
And I knew I had to split
And I got juiced
I was out of control
Smashed up the car
Slipped up on the sidewalk
When I came to
You know my poor heart sank
I knew what Anna Lee had done
To bail me out of the drunk tank
Her last act of devotion
Got me out of that jail
She had plied her worldly charm
Just to throw my bail
Anna Lee
I said you had gone too far
She just slapped my face and spit
And took the keys back to her car
