Из альбома: Legends of the Lost and Found
At first I did not think it could be you
But you're the only one that got off the train
So you must be my wife Miss Annie Halsey
Yes, I guess I am your husband, Hello I'm Harry Crane
Mail Order Annie, never mind your crying
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail Order Annie, can't you see I'm trying
To tell you that I'm glad you're here,
You are the woman who's come to be my wife
You know you're not as pretty as I dreamed you'd be,
But then I'm not no handsome fancy Dan
And out here looks are really not important
It's what's inside a woman when she's up against the land
Mail Order Annie, never mind your crying
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail Order Annie, can't you see I'm trying
To tell you that I'm glad you're here,
You are the woman who's come to be my wife
You know it's not no easy life you're entering
The winter wind comes whistling through the cracks there in the sod
You know you'll never have too many neighbors
There's you Girl, and there's me, and there's God
You know I'm just a dirty man from the North Dakota plains
You're one girl from the city who's been thrown out on her own
I'm standing here not sure of what to say to you
'Cepting Mail Order Annie, lets you and me go home
Mail Order Annie, never mind your crying
Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life
Mail Order Annie, can't you see I'm trying
To tell you that I'm glad you're here,
You are the woman who's come to be my wife
