Annabelle [Dutch translation]
Lease twenty acres and one jenny mule
From the Alabama Trust
Half of the cotton, third of the corn
Get a handful of dust
[Chorus]
We cannot have all things to please us
No matter how we try
'Til we've all gone to Jesus
We can only wonder why
I had a daughter called her Annabelle
She's the apple of my eye
Tried to give her something like I never had
I didn't want to ever hear her cry
[Chorus]
When I'm dead and buried
I'll take a hard life of tears
Everyday I've ever known
Anna's in the churchyard
She's got no life at all
She's only got these words on a stone
[Chorus]
