drive-by truckers - my sweet annette (remixed / remastered) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
me and my annette, we was as fond as we could be
we was set to marry in october ’33
i set my sights to courtin’ her, as fine as she could be
i never ever noticed her best friend marilee
took a job at the saw mill and i bought my girl a ring
had a pre+wedding party, close friends and family
everything was fine, eatin’ homemade ice cream
i swear i never noticed maid of honor marilee

[chorus]
and my sweet annette was left standing at the altar
my sweet annеtte was left standing at the altar

[verse 2]
marilee was takеn ill, it was several miles from home
back then it wasn’t fittin’ for a girl to leave alone
sweet annette, she asked me to walk her to the door
as innocent as children back before the war

[chorus]
and my sweet annette was left standing at the altar
my sweet annette was left standing at the altar

[bridge]
lord have mercy for what we done
lord have mercy when two people get alone
neither one of us had done anything like that, you see
by the next sunset, i had eloped with marilee
by the next sunset, i had eloped with marilee
by the next sunset, i had eloped with marilee
[outro]
my sweet annette was left standing at the altar
