Little Orphan Annie

Play your fiddle Little Orphan Annie

Play it for the shrimpers and the pirates out to sea

Play it for the hippies down in Mallory Square

If I'm not there won't you play a song for me

We all called her Little Orphan Annie at the playground

Merry go merry go merry go round

Till she picked her fiddle up we always put her down

When she picked her fiddle up they come for miles around to hear her play

Play your fiddle Little Orphan Annie...
