Lyrics

[Verse 1]
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 till I landed here
Where all of my wounds, they turned into gold
When I kissed your hair
[Verse 2]
Now come to me, Hannah
Hannah, won't you come home to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you just be kind to me
[Verse 3]
Ask her why she cries so loud, will not say a word
Eyes like ice and hands that shake, she takes what she deserves
To celebrate the emptiness of a cold and lonely room
You sweep the floors with your long flowered dress
If you cannot find a broom
[Verse 4]
Now come to me, Hannah
Hannah, won't you come home to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you just be kind to me
[Verse 5]
She got hair that flows right down, right down to the backs of her knees
Papa, he was a preachin' man and the Lord is hard to please
So she comes down from the Ozark hills to these very streets to roam
With her banjo and her Bible and a fine tooth comb
[Verse 6]
Now come to me, Hannah
Hannah, won't you come home to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you just be kind to me
[Verse 7]
Now I'd walk one mile on just broken glass
To fall down at your feet
Mmm, my Hannah
You're the queen of the street
[Verse 8]
I climbed the tree with my Hannah Lee, my intentions, they were pure
But the breeze did whip and I lost my grip
And I tumbled towards the Earth
Well, you never would guess who it was that stood below
His name I will never tell
But his eyes were clear, his arms were strong and he caught me as I fell
[Verse 9]
Now come to me, Hannah
Hannah, won't you come home to me?
And I'll lay down this bottle of wine
If you just be kind to me
[Verse 10]
Now I'd walk one mile on just broken glass
To fall down at your feet
Mmm, my Hannah
You're the queen of the street
The queen of the street
