Kate Rusby
Awkward Annie
[Verse 1]
I gave to you a hen
You gave it back again
Without its eggs
My Annie

[Verse 2]
I gave to you a hare
You really didn't care
Now it has no legs
My Annie

[Chorus]
Oh, Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't come near me
Oh no, don't you say so
You are my dear, my Annie
Oh, Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't come near me
Oh no, don't you say so
You are my dear, my Annie

[Verse 3]
I gave to you a dog
You threw for it a log
Now it won't come back
My Annie
[Verse 4]
I gave to you a pig
It wasn't very big
Now the meat's all black
My Annie

[Chorus]
Oh, Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't come near me
Oh no, don't you say so
You are my dear, my Annie

[Instrumental Break]

[Verse 5]
I gave to you a cow
You really don't know how
It flew away
My Annie

[Verse 6]
I gave to you a horse
A silly fool of course
For you rode away
My—
[Chorus]
Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't so
Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't come near me
Oh no, don't you say so
You are my dear, my
Annie let me in
I will fly, I will swim
I will die if you don't come near me
Oh no, don't you say so
You are my dear, my Annie

[Verse 7]
I gave to you my heart
You tore it all apart
When you rode away
My Annie
