Lyrics

Anna i

So my sister and I left louisiana
Where the moon on the mississippi is a-shining ever
Like you always hear in the songs of dixie
We look forward to our home-coming —
And the sooner the better

Anna ii

And the sooner the better!

Anna i

It's a month already since we started
For the great big cities where you go to make money
In seven years our fortune will be made
And then we can go back

Anna ii

In six years would be much nicer

Anna i

Our mom and dad and both our brothers wait in old louisiana
And we'll send them all our money as we make it
For all the money's got to go to build a little house
Down by the mississippi in louisiana
Right, anna ?

Anna ii

Yes, anna

Anna i

She's the one with the looks, I'm realistic;
She's just a little mad, my head is on straight
But we're really one divided being
Even though you see two of us
And both of us are anna
Together we've but a single past, a single future
One heart and one savings account
And we only do what's best for one another
Right, anna ?

Anna ii

Yes, anna
