Young Anna Lee come talk to me
Let the truth set you free
Your just that far from lovin me and I'm sorry
But there's a secret from your lonesome past
I'm not allowed to even ask
Anna Lee won't tell me The Story
Chorus
Don't take that secret to your grave
Anna Lee come on be brave
Let those words pa** o'er your tongue don't worry
Just like a meeting with the ex drinking crowd
Where you stand up front and you speak up front
And you speak up loud
And everybody has to tell The Story
She came into my life with ease
Change the way I lived and breathed
And made me want to hope for love and glory
And I fell as far as I could fall
I ran into this towered wall
And Anna Lee won't tell me The Story
Chorus
Don't take that secret to your grave
Anna Lee come on be brave
Let those words pa** o'er your tongue don't worry
Just like a meeting with the addicted crowd
Where you stand up front and you speak up front
And you speak up loud
And everybody has to tell The Story
