Sidewalk Annie Lyrics
She told you about it through a broken bleeding windpipe
It shook your bones and made your life feel skintightWell Sidewalk Annie, now your coattails have come undone
Your whisper's a scream now since you don't speak to anyoneThe howlin' winds could never care what she liked
Rhythm and blues or 'A Stranger In The Night'
It tore up the trailer with the sounds of a howlin' wolf
The cellar was stone, even the garden was bulletproofWell Sidewalk Annie, now your coattails have come undone
Your whisper's a scream now since you don't speak to anyoneLittle girl in your white ice skates
We've seen your face walkin' around the old school gates
With a hand on your hip and the other one on your head
You realized it wasn't gone but lost insteadSidewalk Annie, now your coattails have come undone
Your whisper's a scream now since you don't speak to anyoneInvested a nickel into the banks of a wishing well
And blew out the candles and hoped for somethin'
That she could, she could sellSidewalk Annie, now your coattails have come undone
Your whisper's a scream now since you don't speak to anyone
