She told you about it through a broken bleeding windpipe. It shook your bones and made your life feel skintight.
Well, Sidewalk Annie Now your coattails have come undone, Your whisper's a scream now Since you don't speak to anyone.
The howlin' winds could never care what she liked, Rhythm and Blues or A Stranger In The Night It tore up the trailer with the sounds of a howlin' wolf, The cellar was stone, even the garden was bulletproof.
Well, Sidewalk Annie Now your coattails have come undone, Your whisper's a scream now Since you don't speak to anyone
Little girl in your white ice skates, We've seen your face walkin' around the old school gates, With a hand on your hip and the other one on your head, You realized it wasn't gone, but lost instead.
Sidewalk Annie Now your coattails have come undone. Your whisper's a scream now Since you don't speak to anyone.
Invested a nickel into the banks of a wishing well And blew out the candles and hoped for somethin' that she could, she could sell.
Sidewalk Annie Now your coattails have come undone. Your whisper's a scream now Since you don't speak to anyone.
