Goin' downtown to see my sister today Goin' downtown to see my sister, oh Mae Well I'm goin' downtown, yes I'm goin' downtown Well I'm goin' downtown to see my sister today CHORUS: Hold on, Annie Mae, hold on, Annie Mae Hold on, Annie Mae, hold on, Annie Mae Hold on, hold on, is this my Annie Mae? Ain't nobody home to answer the door Maybe my Annie don't live here no more Well I must hang around, every night a-downtown Well I'm lookin' around to see my sister today (chorus) She didn't leave nothin', no trace a-behind She didn't leave numbers for me to be fine So I'm leavin' downtown, yes I'm leavin' downtown Well I'm leavin' downtown, I miss my sister today (chorus x2) (instrumental, same pattern as verses, fading out)
