ANN MARIE

I'm just a boy From the Chattahoochee flats
bare feet on the red clay grass scares all the aristocrats I've never been to Rome and I've never been to Sicily And you can pity me or You can come with me
but it's a long ride through the sticks with me
I've never been to Shanghai
and I've never been to Jericho
But it's a long long row to hoe
and the sun's comin round the bend
I've never been to Iowa
and I've never been to Graceland
But I've got my sweet ann marie
and that's all that I need My Ann Marie, Is All I need.

She was just a girl from the Chattahoochee flats gingham summer dresses and a braid goin down her back
She taught me write
She taught me arithmetic
She wrote everything I needed to know
on a spent rock candy stick.

Walk with me down to the creek I’m on my knees please marry me.
Live With me Grow Old with me make me complete Sweet Ann Marie
Our separate ways we went that day
Never to be with Ann Marie.
