Song title: Mistress Annie


Mistress Annie - Version 1

Sweet Miss Annie, gonna raise them young boys down home
Yeah sweet Miss Annie, startin' to raise them young boys now
Cause Poppa's bring their sons
And Miss Annie, she'll call "Hi"

Mistress Annie, come on, Kung Fu Ann
Mistress Annie, yeah, I'm your, I'm, I'm your man
I know she'll come
And honey'll show them how to do it right

Mistress Annie, lay your money down
I said hey, Miss Annie, come lay your money down
All the poppa's bring their sons
But Miss Annie show's them how, all right

Notes: Bruce Springsteen Band 1971

But Miss Annie shows them how
