C F
1. Once more, Little Annie, I must leave you,
C G
we shall part at the end of the lane,
C F
but promise me, Little Annie,
C G C
you will wait for me till springtime comes again.
C F
2. When the sun shines down on the mountain,
C G
and the wild sheep are wandering all alone,
C F
when the birds and the bees are a humming
C G C
makes me think that springtime won’t be very long.
G C
When springtime comes on the mountain,
C G
and the wild flowers are scattered o'er the plain,
C F
I shall watch for the bees to return to their trees,
G C
and I'll be waiting when the springtime comes again.
F C G C
Oh-la-lay-ee, ah-le-oh-lay-hee, ah-le-oh-hee-hee, oh-lay.

3. Now springtime is here, Little Annie,
C G
I am on my way back to the lane,
C F
for you promised me, Little Annie,
C G C
you'd be waiting when springtime comes again. + CHORUS
