I lost all of my vanity when I peered into the pool.
I lost all of my innocence when I fell in love with you.
I never knew a man could fall so far until I landed here
Where all of my wounds, they turned into gold, when I kissed your hair.
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you to come on to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine,
if you'll just be kind to me.
Ask her why she cries so loud,
and she will not say a word.
Eyes like ice and hands that shake...
She takes what she deserves,
To celebrate her emptiness in a cold and lonely room.
Sweep the floors with your long flowered dress
if you cannot find a broom
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine,
if you'll just be kind to me.
She's got hair that flows right down,
right down to the backs of her knees.
Her Papa he was a preaching man,
and the Lord is hard to please,
So she comes down from the Ozark hills
to these very streets to roam,
With a banjo, and a bible,
and a fine tooth comb.
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
if you just be kind to me.
I climb the tree with my Hannahlee,
my intentions they were pure.
Oh the breeze did whip, and I lost my grip,
and I tumbled towards the earth.
Where you never would guess who it was that stood below
His name I will never tell.
But His eyes were clear,
And His arms were strong,
And He caught me as I fell
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me?
I'll lay down this bottle of wine,
if you'd just be kind to me.
Now come to me Hannah
Hannah won't you come on to me?
I'll lay down this bottle of wine,
if you'd just be kind to me.
