AIf (x02220@1)Annie puts her hair up on her head,

AIf (x02220@1)she acts a little funny, seems a little strange,
Astarts (x02220@1)spendin' your money for brand new things.
DTells (xx0232@1)you that she wants to use the car,
 Anever (x02220@1)explains what she wants it for.
EBrother, (022100@1)there just ain't no 'ifs,'
      Acause (x02220@1)Annie's been a-workin' on the midnight shift.

    DYou (xx0232@1)tell her, honey, get out of that bed..
           AShe (x02220@1)says, 'Leave me alone, I'm just about dead.'
