Once more I must leave you Little Annie

We must part at the end of the lane

For you promised me Little Annie

You'd be waiting when the Springtime comes again

When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain

And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain

I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees

And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again

When the sun shines down on the mountain

And the wild sheep are wandering all alone

And the birds and the bees are a-singing

It makes me think that Springtime won't be long

When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain

And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain

I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees

And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again

Instrumental

Now the Springtime is come to the mountain

And I'm on my way back to the lane

For you promised me Little Annie

You'd be waiting when the Springtime comes again

When the Springtime comes o'er the mountain

And the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain

I will watch for the leaves to return to the trees

And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again

I’ll watch for the leaves to return to the trees

And I'll be waitin' when the Springtime comes again
