These are actually two separate songs, but they blend into one here, and I love them both. However, I've decided only to post the lyrics from the first song here.Unfortunately, I couldn't find the version from the live album called "Fast women and slow horses"... That's my favourite one. Um, so, the lyrics are the ones that I know from "Fast women and slow horses", and may not see eye to eye completely with the lyrics in the video I've posted.

in the evening, he stumbles home
with his tie undone
and the moon sweeps seventh avenue, as usual
you lie awake at night
you remember, now
that Annie's back in town
well, I know why you're drinking
I know your alibi
so don't make excuses
those are tears in your eyes
and you're falling back
in love again
now that Annie's back in town
well, it came down through the grapevine
it put your business on the street
I hear you've been hanging out until dawn
in some lunch room somewhere
well, you thought you'd gotten over her
but that was 'til you found
that Annie's back in town
all the corner boys, they're just trouble makers
and the sailors are all fools
seems like some things 'round here never change
that's why it's always good for business
guess we'll be seeing you around
'cause Annie's back in town
