Gentleman Jack inspired. Tib is slushed and trying to get a hold of Anne's black almondy shoes...
Lyrics
Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where did you leave your shoes
The black ones with almondy shine
It's Tib and she's searching,
Looking for a nib
From the ole' liquor cabinet of old
Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where have you gone
Oh, la, la, la, la
Verse 2
Your shoes shined so bright
I nearly forgot
To moan for the emptiness
Of my lonely glass
Pre-Chorus
Anne, where have you wandered
And where is Miss Walker
You'd best begin to chatter
Or I'll open another bag
Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where did you leave your shoes
The black ones with almondy shine
It's Tib and she's searching,
Looking for a nib
From the ole' liquor cabinet of old
Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where have you gone
Oh, la, la, la, la
Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where did you leave your shoes
The black ones with almondy shine
It's Tib and she's searching,
Looking for a nib
From the ole' liquor cabinet of old
Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where have you gone
Oh, la, la, la, la
Bridge
Down by the stairway
The clock softly chimed
Miss Walker is sighing,
Her patience resigned
A faint trace of laughter
Spills down the hall
But the shoes and sweet Anne
Are missing after all
Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where did you leave your shoes
The black ones with almondy shine
It's Tib and she's searching,
Looking for a nib
From the ole' liquor cabinet of old
Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Where have you gone
Oh, la, la, la, la
Outro
Out in the hallway
A slipper appears
But Anne is still missing
After all these years
Tib pours the sherry
Miss Walker looks round
Still those black shoes are lost
They’ll never be found
Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
Nobody knows
Oh, la, la,
Coda
Through parlour and pantry
the searching goes on
While Tib counts the bottles
from dusk until dawn
The hearth quietly settles,
Miss Walker recalls
A night with no answers,
no shoes in the hall
Final Post-Chorus
Oh Anne, Anne
We’re longing for news
Oh, la, la, la, la
