Lyrics

[Verse 1] Oh Annie, I am sorry for the grief Young sister to my lover, I know you'd both rather be On that rough road through the woods of Michigan Young and free and building something on the land Where you howl at the moon [Verse 2] It'll cost you, not enough to bring you down That's been my lesson, ever since you drove me 'round Be a fighter, like the elders who have cried "Oh Mercy, we will not be satisfied, 'til we are free To howl at the moon, one and all." 'Til we are free, to howl at the moon, one and all [Verse 3] I found her dancing, but I could not dance along I found her singing, but I could not sing the song Being happy was not a promise I could keep In spite of all that, she has tried to deliver me So, we are free, to howl at the moon, one and all [Bridge] Oh Mystery, won't you please deliver me From this body of pain, that I give into every day In my mind and with my breath Any fight that I have left [Verse 4] I found myself on the streets of this college town Yearn for youth, but all I do is limp around I'm the fool who wants to wear that fickle crown She says, "Let 'em have it, let those kids fight to be found! 'Til they are free to howl at the moon To fight, 'til we're all free to howl at the moon, one and all." One and all One and all
