Play your fiddle, Little Orphan Annie Play it for the shrimpers and the pirates out to sea Play it for the hippies down in Mallory Square If I'm not there, won't you play a song for me? We all called her Little Orphan Annie at the playground Merry go, merry go, merry go round Till she picked her fiddle up, we always put her down When she picked her fiddle up They come for miles around to hear her play Play your fiddle, Little Orphan Annie Play it for the shrimpers and the pirates out to sea Play it for the hippies down in Mallory Square If I'm not there, won't you play a song for me?
