I got a sweet little angel and I love her so
She’s there when I need her, she understands when I say go
In the night, when she says “Hold me”, it makes me feel so strong
Living with her unfolds me, she gives me strength to carry on

I don’t need anyone else
If I did I would be fooling myself
Anna, Anna

And I know if she left me, my world would turn cold
She’s the best liitle lady that a man could ever hold
When I’m down, she knows what to say
She clears my blindness away
And in the night, she says “Hold me”, it makes me feel so strong

I don’t need nobody else
If I did I would be fooling myself
Anna, Anna

I found me a simple woman, yeah yeah
A simple woman
I have found me a simple woman, oooh yeah
A simple woman for a simple man
I found me a simple woman,
A simple woman, oh yeah yeah yeah

About Lyrics and Anna by Bad Company

When you decide to study the lyrics to Anna, you're looking at the words, verses and background chorus from the 1975 song by Bad Company. Some of the lyrics to Anna have clear meanings and some contain metaphorical references. Like most songs, only Bad Company and their collaborators know the full story behind any of the their songs.

You can understand the lyrics to Anna if you take apart the structure of the words. The word "lyric" itself derives from the Latin word lyricus, with the actual English word lyrics applied to the definition "words set to music" listed in Stainer and Barrett's 1876 Dictionary of Musical Terms. Continuing the chain, the Latin word lyricus derives from the Greek word λυρικός or lyrikós. This somewhat means "poetry accompanied by the lyre" or "words set to music." You can easily see that by looking at the background of the word lyric, that the "lyrics to Anna" means the words set to the music of Anna, or poetry accompanied by the lyre played by Bad Company. The singular form "lyric" is still used to mean the complete words to a song. However, the singular form lyric is also commonly used to refer to a specific line (or phrase) within a song's lyrics. Hence, by this analysis of word structure, you could say that the lyric to Anna and the lyrics to Anna are both one and the same thing. None of this talk about the word Lyrics is really relevant to fans of Bad Company who came here looking just for the lyrics to Anna, but we feel it is still fun to learn what's behind commonly used words and lyrics in songs.
