[Verse 1] Annie, loving Annie
Come give me your hand
You said that if you marry
I could be the man

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Verse 2] Early in the summer
My Annie passed me by
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Verse 3] Later in the summer
With a bottle in my hand
Saying "drink with me, my Annie"
For our love is at an end

[Verse 4] I go down to the water
When everyone's asleep
And I think of loving Annie
Wherever she may be

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye

[Chorus] The roving, the roving of her eye
I knew her love was changing
By the roving of her eye
