[1] Once more little Annie I must [4] leave you
We shall [1] part at the end of the [5] lane
For you [1] promised me little [4] Annie
You'd be [1] waiting when the [5] Springtime comes [1] again

When the [5] Springtime comes o'er the [1] mountains
And the wild flowers scatter o'er the [5] plains
I shall [1] watch for the leaves to [4] return to the trees
I'll be [5] waiting when the springtime comes [1] again

When the sun shines down on the mountains
And the wild sheep are wandering all alone
And the birds and the bees are a-hummin'
It makes me think that springtime won't be long

Now the springtime has come little Annie
I am on my way to the lane
For you promised me little Annie
You'd be waiting when the springtime comes again
