In my mind I see you there
With your raven eyes
And your coal black hair
Down on Tchoupitoulas Street
On your balcony
Oh Annie come back home to me

I came down from Mont Claire and
Met the devil there
He asked me the way back home
Got down on all fours
I said, "Mine or yours,"
Oh Annie come back home to me

[Chorus]
Oh I love you can't you see

I heard the song you sang
And heard your banjo ring
A thousand times or more
Underneath the cellar door
Of your mamas store
Oh Annie come back home to me

[Chorus]
Oh I love you can't you see
The merchant and his son who plays
The accordion
Sown at the French cafe
Sounded so good tonight
I found the morning light
Annie come back home to me

[Chorus]
I love you can't you see

Remember that old Chinatown alley
Making love neath those
Robe Valley trees
Back when we young and free
Annie come back home to me

[Chorus]
I love you can't you see
