You were a strong kid, you loved your mother
Gotta pay off the mortgage, one way or another.
Patience and precision she knows,
Ready and steady she goes.
Chorus:
Oh Annie O. show me, just how sure you can really be.
Split a dime just in time for all the world to see.
Annie you’ve got the draw on me.
Escaped the wolves and took to the game.
Who knew the bullseye would be your fortune and fame.
Frank E. from the city made a very, very large bet.
He knew when she’d won it was his wife that he’d met.
Patience and precision she knows,
Ready and steady she goes. She goes.
Chorus:
Oh Annie O. show me, just how sure you can really be.
Split a dime just in time for all the world to see.
Annie you’ve got the draw on me.
