Sidewalk Annie Lyrics

The Wallflowers

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
