Tom T. Hall - Royal Annie lyrics



She wore a big yellow bow in her hair one morning we woke up she was there

We were a little old out of way town and all us kids were glad to have her around

You know her castle was an old mobile home she didn't even have a cellular phone

She lived on cigarettes and cookies and tea and said she once had a show on TV

And all us kids around town called her Royal Annie

She talked to babies who had never been born

Said she had dresses that she never had worn

She had sweethearts who came out of the air and said she had a lock of Elvis' hair

She pushed an old shopping cart around town

She wore sneakers and an old satin gown

She wore diamonds and we knew they were fake

Said she once gave Dolly Parton a break

And all us kids around town called her Royal Annie<BR>

She'd sit and stare at the bright morning sun

We were suspicious that she carried a gun

They once considered puttin' Annie in jail she never ever went to pick up her mail

Then one day there was a big limousine came to town and caused a terrible scene

A bunch of doctors and lawyers they say and they came to take Annie away

And all us kids around town called her Royal Annie

When Royal Annie was gone I recall they had a meeting at a community hall

They wrote a letter and were tryin' to say they hoped that Annie had enjoyed her stay

Well they'd been looking for her over a year

They were surprised to find her living out here

And Royal Annie sent a small note of thanks and she had 10 million bucks in the bank

And all us kids around town called her Royal Annie

All us kids around town called her Royal Annie
