Annie laid her head down in the roses She had ribbons ribbons ribbons in her long brown hair I don't know maybe it was the roses All I know I could not leave her there I don't know it must have been the roses The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair I don't 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 don't know it must have been the roses The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair I don't 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 it's strange how no one comes round any more I don't know it must have been the roses The roses or the ribbons in her long brown hair I don't 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 don't know maybe it was the roses All I know I could not leave her there
