Strum
D-DU-UDU
riding in planes and hailing cabs
i been on the road so long
looking for the sunshine everyday
that i've been missing so long
two blocks over and one street across
uptown round and down
there must be someone a hiding out somewhere
someplace i ain't found
annie, orphan annie
are your nashville nights still warm?
somewhere in the west of town
there's a comin up a storm
are your rivers dark and muddy
where the green swamp willows grow
nine more days and i'll be home
back in off the road
a picking and a grinning and a playing the games
a-listen to what i say
i wish i was down in nashville town
about fifth and broadway
where the cumberland rows, the soft breeze blows
and home it ain't far away
but here i sit in new york city
just a-hanging out every day
annie, orphan annie
are your nashville nights still warm?
somewhere in the west of town
there's a comin up a storm
are your rivers dark and muddy
where the green swamp willows grow
nine more days and i'll be home
back in off the road
annie, orphan annie
are your nashville nights still warm?
somewhere in the west of town
there's a comin up a storm
are your rivers dark and muddy
where the green swamp willows grow
nine more days and i'll be home
back in off the road
nine more days and i'll be home
back in off the road
