Whistle Down The Wind - Annie Christmas lyrics

[The Man] She lived in these parts, she was a big old girl Miss Annie, what a wonder Three hundred pounds and six foot eight, in her bare feet Annie Christmas She could drink and she could fight, she had a curly black moustache She was famous, on the river She was madly in love with a wild gambling man That was Charlie and she loved him But old Charlie never even noticed her at all Until one day, what a one day When she wore a very special necklace Just to prove that she was tough and reckless With a bead for every ear and nose She had bitten off, as the story goes When she bit every man who ever did her wrong And the necklace was already thirty feet long And the upshot was, and the upshot was Old Charlie was impressed and the next thing you know They were married, what a wedding And the next year she gave him a dozen sons at once They were giants! [Poor Baby] What a wonder [The Man] And before they were six they were seven foot four In their bare feet [Louis] They were giants! [The Man] And they carried miss Annie on their shoulders like a prize She was beaming like an Angel [Swallow] Like an Angel [Poor Baby] With a moustache! [The Man] And she always wore that special necklace 'Cause it proved that she was tough and reckless With a bead for every ear and nose She had bitten off, as the story goes [The Man & The Children] And she always wore that special necklace 'Cause it proved that she was tough and reckless With a bead for every ear and nose She had bitten off, as the story goes
