1
Alone in the world was poor little Anne
2
As sweet a young child as you'd find
3
Her parents had gone to their final reward
4
Leavin' their baby behind
5
(Did you hear?)
6
This poor little child was only nine years of age
7
When mother and dad went away
8
Still she bravely worked
9
At the one thing she knew
10
To earn her few pennies a day
11
She made artificial flowers, artificial flowers
12
Flowers for ladies of fashion to wear
13
She made artificial flowers you know those artificial flowers
14
Fashions from Annie's despair
15
With paper and shears with some wire and wax
16
She made up each tulip and mum
17
As snowflakes drifted into her tenement room
18
Her baby little fingers grew numb
19
From makin' artificial flowers those artificial flowers
20
Flowers for ladies of high fashion to wear
21
She made artificial flowers artificial flowers
22
Made from Annie's despair
23
They found little Annie all covered in ice
24
Still clutchin' her poor frozen shears
25
Amidst all the blossoms she had fashioned by hand
26
And watered with all her young tears
27
There must be a heaven where little Annie can play
28
In heavenly gardens and bowers
29
And instea-a-ad of a halo she'll wear 'round her head
30
A garland of genuine flowers
31
No more artificial flowers
32
Throw away those artificial flowers
33
Flowers for ladies of society to wear
34
Throw away those artificial flowers
35
Those dumb-dumb flowers
36
Fashioned from Annie's
37
Fashioned from A-a-a-annie's des-pa-a-a-air
38
(Give her the real thing)
