Mail Order Annie Lyrics – Harry Chapin
Singer: Harry Chapin
Title: Mail Order Annie
Dougie, Maestro?
At first I did not think it could be you
But you’re the only one that got off the train
So you must be my wife, Miss Annie Halsey, yes, yes
I guess I am your husband
Hello, I’m Harry Crane
Mail order Annie, never mind your cryin’
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail order Annie, can’t you see I’m tryin’
To tell you that I’m glad you’re here?
You are the woman who’s come to be my wife
You know you’re not as pretty as I dreamed you’d be
But then I’m not no handsome fancy Dan
And out here looks are really not important, no, no
It’s what’s inside a woman
When she’s up against the land
Mail order Annie, never mind your cryin’
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail order Annie, can’t you see I’m tryin’
To tell you that I’m glad you’re here?
You are the woman who’s come to be my wife
You know it’s not no easy life you’re enterin’
The winter wind comes whistlin’ through the cracks there in the sod
You know you’ll never have too many neighbors
There’s you, girl, and there’s me, and there’s God
I am just a dirt man from the North Dakota plains
You’re one girl from the city who’s been thrown out on her own
And I’m standin’ here not sure of what to say to you
‘Ceptin’ Mail order Annie
Let’s you and me go home
Mail order Annie, never mind your cryin’
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail order Annie, can’t you see I’m tryin’
To tell you that I’m glad you’re here?
You are the woman who’s come to be my wife
