Little Orphan Annie Maybe Lyrics

Maybe Lyrics

Maybe far away 

 Or maybe real nearby 

 He may be pouring her coffee 

 She may be straighting his tie! 

 

 Maybe in a house 

 All hidden by a hill 

 She's sitting playing piano, 

 He's sitting paying a bill! 

 

 Betcha they're young 

 Betcha they're smart 

 Bet they collect things 

 Like ashtrays, and art! 

 

 Betcha they're good -- 

 (Why shouldn't they be?) 

 Their one mistake 

 Was giving up me! 

 

 So maybe now it's time, 

 And maybe when I wake 

 They'll be there calling me "Baby"... 

 Maybe. 

 

 

 Betcha he reads 

 Betcha she sews 

 Maybe she's made me 

 A closet of clothes! 

 

 Maybe they're strict 

 As striaght as a line... 

 Don't really care 

 As long as they're mine! 

 

 So maybe now this prayer's 

 The last one of it's kind... 

 Won't you please come get your "Baby" 

 

 Annie and Orphans
