作詞:Robert Hunter / 作曲:Robert Hunter
Annie laid her head down in the roses.
She had ribbons ribbons ribbons in her long brown hair.
I dont know maybe it was the roses
All I know I could not leave her there.
I dont know it must have been the roses
The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair.
I dont know maybe it was the roses
All I know I could not leave her there.
Ten years the waves roll the ships home from the sea
Thinkin well how it may blow in all good company
If I tell another what your own lips told to me
Let me lay neath the roses till my eyes no longer see.
I dont know it must have been the roses
The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair.
I dont know maybe it was the roses
All I know I could not leave her there.
One pane of glass in the window
No one is complaining no come in and shut the door
Faded is the crimson from the ribbons that she wore
And its strange how no one comes round any more.
I dont know it must have been the roses
The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair.
I dont know maybe it was the roses
All I know I could not leave her there.
Annie laid her head down in the roses.
She had ribbons ribbons ribbons in her long brown hair.
I dont know maybe it was the roses
All I know I could not leave her there.
