Dickey Lee Lyrics
Annie

In the small town where I grew up,
People still talk till this day.
They tell of a blond-haired girl named Annie,
And that broken promise I made.

I promised I'd meet her late that Sunday evenin',
She promised me she would wait.
But I met a girl and forgot about Annie,
She left with some friends about eight.

Annie never forgave me.
I never did make things right.
It's breakin' my heart,
'Cause I broke the promise,
I made to Annie that night.

Early next day, on my way to her house,
I turned on my car radio.
I couldn't believe what my ears were hearin',
Now there was no need to go.

Four lives were lost in a head-on collision,
I heard the newsman explain.
And when he told of the lives that were taken,
I heard him call Annie's name.

Annie never forgave me.
I never did make things right.
It's breakin' my heart,
'Cause I broke the promise,
I made to Annie that night.

Annie never forgave me.
I never did make things right.
It's breakin' my heart,
'Cause I broke the promise,
I made to Annie that night.
