Musicals - Whistle Down The Wind - Annie Christmas Lyrics
[The Man]She lived in these parts, she was a big old girlMiss Annie, what a wonderThree hundred pounds and six foot eight, in her bare feetAnnie ChristmasShe could drink and she could fight, she had a curly black moustacheShe was famous, on the riverShe was madly in love with a wild gambling manThat was Charlie and she loved himBut old Charlie never even noticed her at allUntil one day, what a one dayWhen she wore a very special necklaceJust to prove that she was tough and recklessWith a bead for every ear and noseShe had bitten off, as the story goesWhen she bit every man who ever did her wrongAnd the necklace was already thirty feet longAnd the upshot was, and the upshot wasOld Charlie was impressed and the next thing you knowThey were married, what a weddingAnd the next year she gave him a dozen sons at onceThey were giants![Poor Baby]What a wonder[The Man]And before they were six they were seven foot fourIn their bare feet[Louis]They were giants![The Man]And they carried miss Annie on their shoulders like a prizeShe 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 recklessWith a bead for every ear and noseShe 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 recklessWith a bead for every ear and noseShe had bitten off, as the story goes
