Intro - D, G x4
I met Annie Ford out on the Great West road,
soaking through and thumbing for a ride.
She sat there on her suitcase in her dancing dress
I would've been a fool to pass her by
And as we sped accross the night
We told our stories by the light
Of the stars that lead us home
Each time we strayed
Me and Annie talked till dawn,
When we reached her old man's farm
And I said so long; guess I'll be on my way
I started meeting Annie by the old sawmill,
Wasting time and drinking in the day
Courting her was easy with her smile like that
Loving her was easy in the night
Well, me and Annie set a date,
And had a wedding in the spring
Man, you should've heard that old church choir sing
It didn't take us very long,
'till the baby came along
Well we named him Tom and settled into life
But at night death came around,
Gh
and Annie left without a sound

But the trouble with this life, is it doesn't last so long
And your love can be divided overnight.
Now it's only me and Tom
Now our wife and mother's gone
Gh
Well I told the Lord ' I just don't think it's right'.
