Anna Lee (安娜·李) - Levon Helm[00:00:00]
Listen now children[00:00:25]
A story I'll tell[00:00:28]
Of a woman they called Anna Lee[00:00:31]
She had a fine son[00:00:38]
And she raised him up well[00:00:41]
And a daughter as lovely as she[00:00:44]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:00:51]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:00:57]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:01:04]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:01:10]
She sang to her darlings a sweet lullaby[00:01:17]
As the cool evening shadows grow long[00:01:23]
Angels and nightingales gathering nigh[00:01:30]
Just to hear mother Anna Lee's song[00:01:36]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:01:43]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:01:49]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:01:56]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:02:02]
Early one morning she rode into town[00:02:22]
To tend to her dear sister there[00:02:28]
She kissed her two babies on cheek and on brow[00:02:35]
And left them with nary a care[00:02:41]
The wind it did rise and the rain it did fall[00:02:48]
The river a shadowy wave[00:02:54]
Anna Lee never heard danger's dark call[00:03:01]
And was swept to her watery grave[00:03:07]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:03:14]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:03:20]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:03:27]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:03:33]
