Lyrics:
- Well I just got a letter
- And it’s from Tennessee
- From my baby Ragtime Annie Lee
- She said that she missed me
- And was longing just to kiss me
- And it made me just as happy as could be
- So I just bought a ticket
- And if everything’s right
- [Andy sings “I got a feeling if things were right”]
- Me and my guitar will be in Nashville tonight
- My steel guitar that she loves so well
- Will be upon my knee and
- I’ll be playing to my Ragtime Annie Lee
- And the song I will play [the boys sing, “And the song I will sing…”]
- Will say I love you
- And I’ll take her in my arms
- And tell her all of her charms just like I used to do
- And maybe I’ll say
- Will you marry me
- And if she will be mine
- Then my guitar will shine
- For the love of me and Ragtime Annie Lee
- And the song I will play
- Will say I love you
- And I’ll take her in my arms
- And tell her all of her charms just like I used to do
- And maybe I’ll say
- Will you marry me
- And if she will be mine
- Then my guitar will shine
- For the love of me and Ragtime Annie Lee
