verse 1 

A  
Yeah, let me tell you the story about Muk Tuk Annie 
                        D 
Who came south to go to school 
E  
With a see through blouse and a seal skin mini 
                      A 
Old Annie sure looked cool 
A 
She blew into Montreal in the early fall 
                         D 
Like nothing they'd ever seen 
E  
With long black hair and reindeer underwear  
                      A 
She weighed about two sixteen 


D                         A 
She came a long long way, from Frobisher Bay 
D                               A 
People don't ya know now what I mean 
D                                A 
She had the boys all cryin on th distant early warning line 
A                 E                     A 
Old Muk Tuk Annie could really make the scene 


verse 2 

A 
She told her teacher that she wanted to dance 
                             D 
She said she wanted to study ballet 
E  
But she was four foot six with her mukluks off 
                        A 
And I heard her teacher say 

A 
Now I ain't saying Annie that you can't dance 
                                D 
No, I wouldn't want to tell you that 
E 
But I got a form here signed in triplicate 
A 
Says you gotta learn to drive a Cat 

A 
She say " I don't want to learn to cook or sew, 
                        D 
Build boats or drive no cat 
E  
Cause I came south to sing and dance 
                     A 
And groovy shit like that 
A 
Cause I was Miss Baffin Island beauty queen 
                     D 
For nineteen seventy four 
E 
And I spent the whole weekend in Grise Fiord 
                              A 
With the boys beating down my door 


D                        A 
She came a long long way from Frobisher Bay 
D                                A 
People don't you know now what I mean 
D                                   A  
She had the boys all crying on that distant early warning line 
A                 E                     A 
Old Muk Tuk Annie could really make the scene 


verse 3 

A 
Well she said " thank you for your truble sir 
                       D 
But I'll make it on my own 
E  
And the word spread through the north like wild fire 
                  A 
Big Annie's comin home  
A  
She got off the plane with a record player 
                       D 
Ballet slippers on her toes 
E  
And she opened up a little groovey club 
                          A 
Where everybody comes and goes 
A  
She got old Stompin Tom on the record player  
                       D 
And she serves up good booze and grub 
E 
And folks around Baffin island 
                                     A 
Say it's better than any old playboy club 
A  
You can drink tea ,beer and anti freeze  
                           D 
Til ya fall right off your feet 
E  
And there's seal flippers and potatoe chips 
                               A 
When you feel like somthing to eat 


D                           A  
She came a long long way to Frobisher Bay 
D                           A 
People don't you now what I mean  
D                                 A 
She had the boys all cryin on the distant early mornin warnin line  
A                 E                     A 
Old Muk Tuk Annie could really came the scene 


verse 4 

A  
Well she packs that joint almost every night 
                          D 
and folks come from miles around 
E 
And every night about ten oclock 
                                   A 
All the house light are turned way down 
A 
And suddenly she on the stage 
                       D  
Wearing that toothless grin 
E  
Short fat Annie the goddess of love 
                               A 
And shes gonna do her dance of sin 
A  
Well she jumps and she shout and she huffs and she puffs  
                           D 
And does a little bump and grind 
E  
And all she wears is the ptarmigan feathers 
                    A 
Scotch taped to her behind 

A  
Well she made about a hundred grand last year 
                       D 
Which wasn't to bad at all 
E 
And decided to take a little holiday  
                    A 
So she flew down to Montreal  
A 
It seem that she ran into her teacher there 
                          D 
You know the one ,she met before 
E 
And she gave him a job tending the bar  
                         A 
And takin tickets at her night club door 


D                             A 
She came a long long way from Frobisher Bay 
D                                A 
People don't you know now what I mean 
D                                  A  
She had the boys all crying on the distant early warning line 
A                 E                A
