Uncle Earl Little Annie
Once more I must leave you, Little Annie
We must part at the end of the lane
For you promised me, Little Annie
You'd be waiting when the Springtime comes again.
Chorus:
When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain
And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain
I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees
And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again
When the sun shines down on the mountain
And the wild sheep are wandering all alone
And the birds and bees are singing
It makes me think that Springtime won't be long.
Chorus:
When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain
And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain
I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees
And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again
Now the Springtime is come to the Mountain
And I'm on my way back to the lane
For you promised me, Little Annie
You'd be waiting when the Springtime comes again
Chorus:
When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain
And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain
I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees
And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again
I will watch for the leaves
to return to the trees
And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again
