[Verse 1]
Anna Lee
I think I wanna leave our little town
Everything here seems to bring me down
If I stay I'll end up in the ground
Come with me
I'll take you any place you wanna go
The crops are dry and the river's running low
There's a better life for us on down the road

[Chorus]
Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her
I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn
We'll be gone

[Verse 2]
Anna Lee
I saw a vulture circling my home
Don't let the sun set past our hourglass to roam
'Cause the sands won't offer hands anymore
And the clocks are moving faster than before

[Chorus]
Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her
I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn
We'll be gone
[Chorus]
Anna Lee
I told another that I loved her
I was wrong
Before we leave
Once more I'll see her to tell her that by dawn
We'll be gone
