The Tragedy Of Annie Mae Lyrics

She was told do not go
Running down the stairs
Told that old dark well
Is not a place to play

Told it isn't safe to tease
The poison snakes
Don’t forget to pray the Lord
Your soul to take

Don't cry for the tragedy of Annie Mae
High time for the frightening of Annie Mae

Now they just find traces of
Her everywhere
At her eulogy the priest said
She's to blame

Dirty little girls like her make
Men insane and so Satan
Must have taken her because
She would not obey

Don’t cry for the tragedy of Annie Mae
High time for the frightening of Annie Mae
No time to rectify the end of Annie Mae
