Whistle Down The Wind movie - Annie Christmas lyrics
rate me<br>
<br>
[The Man]<br>
She lived in these parts, she was a big old girl<br>
Miss Annie, what a wonder<br>
Three hundred pounds and six foot eight, in her bare feet<br>
Annie Christmas<br>
<br>
She could drink and she could fight, she had a curly black moustache<br>
She was famous, on the river<br>
She was madly in love with a wild gambling man<br>
That was Charlie and she loved him<br>
<br>
But old Charlie never even noticed her at all<br>
Until one day, what a one day<br>
<br>
When she wore a very special necklace<br>
Just to prove that she was tough and reckless<br>
With a bead for every ear and nose<br>
She had bitten off, as the story goes<br>
<br>
When she bit every man who ever did her wrong<br>
And the necklace was already thirty feet long<br>
And the upshot was, and the upshot was<br>
<br>
Old Charlie was impressed and the next thing you know<br>
They were married, what a wedding<br>
And the next year she gave him a dozen sons at once<br>
They were giants!<br>
<br>
[Poor Baby]<br>
What a wonder<br>
<br>
[The Man]<br>
And before they were six they were seven foot tall<br>
In their bare feet<br>
<br>
[Louis]<br>
They were giants!<br>
<br>
[The Man]<br>
And they carried miss Annie on their shoulders like a prize<br>
She was beaming like an Angel<br>
<br>
[Swallow]<br>
Like an Angel<br>
<br>
[Poor Baby]<br>
With a moustache!<br>
<br>
[The Man]<br>
And she always wore that special necklace<br>
'Cause it proved that she was tough and reckless<br>
With a bead for every ear and nose<br>
She had bitten off, as the story goes<br>
<br>
[The Man & The Children]<br>
And she always wore that special necklace<br>
'Cause it proved that she was tough and reckless<br>
With a bead for every ear and nose<br>
She had bitten off, as the story goes<br>
<br>
<br>
The children ask the man for the moral of the story and he replies he does <br>
not know. The children sing No matter what...<br>
