The Truth of My Sweet Anna Lee

I didn’t know nothing
No nothing at all
Some things are better left unsaid
Out of sight
Out of mind
That don’t make it right
Now that the truth has come to light
I cut off her wings that day
And broke her halo too
And her horns grew
As sharp as thorns do
And red as the blood she drew
It was up to me
But I was too fooled to see
The truth of my sweet Anna Lee
The truth of my sweet sweet Anna Lee
You didn’t say nothing
No nothing at all
It’s far too late to come clean
Everyone’s been talking
The whispers grown loud
I know all about it
And it’s too late now
Then heaven turned hell that day
And my world split in two
And the sun turned black
Black as her heart
As black as the blood I drew
It was up to me
But I was too fooled to see
The truth of my sweet Anna Lee
Oh it was up to me
But I was too fooled to see
The truth of my sweet Anna Lee
The truth of my sweet sweet Anna Lee
The truth of my sweet Anna Lee
