In the evening he stumbles home with his tie undone |
|
And as the moon sweeps 7th Avenue as usual |
|
You lie awake at night |
|
You remember when |
|
now that Annie's back in town |
|
Well I know why you're drinking |
|
I know your alibi |
|
Don't make up excuses |
|
for those are tears in your eyes |
|
And you're falling back in love again |
|
now that Annie's back in town |
|
And it came down through the grapevine |
|
It put your business on the street |
|
I hear you've been hanging out 'til dawn |
|
in some lunch room |
|
Well you thought you've gotten over her |
|
but that was 'til you found |
|
that Annie's back in town |
|
And all the corner boys are trouble-makers |
|
and the sailors are all fools |
|
You know it seems like some things round here |
|
I guess they'll never change |
|
Oh but it's always good for business |
|
Guess we'll be seeing you around |
|
now that Annie's back in town |
