作曲:Harry Chapin

At first I did not think it could be you

You're the only one who got off the train

Say you must be my wife Miss Annie Halsey

Yes yes I guess I am your husband

Hello I'm Harry Crane

Mail order Annie

Never mind your cryin'

Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life

Mail order Annie

Can't you see I'm tryin'

To tell you that I'm glad you're here

You are the woman who's come to be my wife

You know you're not as pretty

As I dreamed you'd be

But then I'm not no handsome fancy dan

And out here looks are really not important no no

It's what's inside a woman

When she up against the land

Mail order Annie

Never mind your cryin'

Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life

Mail order Annie

Can't you see I'm tryin'

To tell you that I'm glad you're here

You are the woman who's come to be my wife

You know it's not no easy life you're enterin'

The winter wind comes whistlin' through

The cracks there in the sod

You know you'll never have too many neighbors

There's you go

And there's me and there's God

I'm just a dirt man

From the North Dakota plains

You're one girl from the city

Who's been thrown out on her own

And I'm standin' here not sure of what to say to you

'Ceptin' mail order Annie

Let's you and me go home

Mail order Annnie

Never mind your cryin'

Your tears are sweet rain in my empty life

Mail order Annie

Can't you see I'm tryin'

To tell you that I'm glad you're here

You are the woman

Who's come to be my wife
