In the evening he stumbles home with his tie undone,
As the moon sweeps 7th avenue, as usual
You lie awake at night
You remember when
Now that Annie`s back in town
Well I know why you`re drinking
I know your alibi
So don`t make excuses
Those are tears in your eyes
And you`re falling back
In love
Again
Now that Annie`s back in town
Well it came down through the grapevine
It put your business on the street
I hear you`ve been hanging out till dawn
In some lunch room (somewhere)
Well you thought you`ve gotten over her
But that was till you found
That Annie`s back in town
All the corner boys are all trouble-makers
And the sailors are all fools
Well it seems like some things round here
I guess they`ll never change
Oh but it`s always good for business
Guess we`ll be seeing you around
Now that Annie`s back in town
