Anna Lee (安娜·李) - Levon Helm[00:00:00]
Listen now children a story I'll tell[00:00:31]
Of a woman they called Anna Lee[00:00:36]
She had a fine son and she raised him up well[00:00:43]
And a daughter as lovely as she[00:00:48]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:00:55]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:01:01]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:01:07]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:01:13]
She sang to her darlings a sweet lullaby[00:01:20]
As the cool evening shadows grow long[00:01:26]
Angels and nightingales gathering nigh[00:01:33]
Just to hear mother Anna Lee's song[00:01:39]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:01:45]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:01:51]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:01:57]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:02:03]
Early one morning she rode into town[00:02:35]
To tend to her dear sister there[00:02:41]
She kissed her two babies on cheek and on brow[00:02:47]
And left them with nary a care[00:02:54]
The wind it did rise and the rain it did fall[00:03:00]
The river a shadowy wave[00:03:06]
Anna Lee never heard danger's dark call[00:03:13]
And was swept to her watery grave[00:03:18]
I'll return to you dear in the dimming of day[00:03:25]
As the sparrow returns to her nest[00:03:31]
I'll return to you dreaming with each lullaby[00:03:37]
Hold your sweet weary head to my breast[00:03:44]
