Lyrics

[GRACE]
Cecille will pick out all your clothes
[CECILLE]
[spoken] Blue, no red is her best color, I think.
[GRACE]
Your bath is drawn by Mrs. Greer.
[GREER]
[spoken] Soap...no, bubbles, I think.
[GRACE]
Annette comes in to make your bed.
[ANNETTE]
[spoken] The silk, no the satin sheets, I think.
[ANNIE]
I think I'm gonna like it here!
[GRACE]
The swimming pool is to the left
[ANNIE]
[spoken] Inside the house? Oh boy.
[GRACE]
The tennis court is in the rear
[ANNIE]
[spoken] I never even picked up a racket.
[GRACE]
Have an instructor here at noon
[spoken] Oh, and get that Don Budge fellow if he's available.
[ANNIE]
I think I'm gonna like it here.
[GRACE]
When you wake Ring for Drake
Drake will bring your tray
When you're through Mrs.Pugh
Comes and takes it away.
[GRACE AND SERVANTS]
No need to pick up any toys
[ANNIE]
[spoken] That's okay, I haven't got any anyway.
[GRACE]
No finger will you lift my dear
[ALL]
We have but one request
Please put us to the test
[ANNIE]
I know I'm gonna like it here
Used to room in a tomb
Where i'd sit and freeze
Get me now, holy cow
Could someone pinch me please. Ow!
[GRACE]
[spoken] She didn't mean it.
[Singing] We've never had a little girl
[ALL]
We've never had a little girl
[ANNIE]
I'm very glad to volunteer
[GRACE AND SERVANTS]
We hope you understand Your wish is our command
[ANNIE, GRACE AND SERVANTS]
I know I'm gonna like it here
We know you're gonna like It here
[ALL]
Welcome

Lyrics change

There were some lyrics changed in the Disney 1999 adaptation.

• Annie said instead of saying she never got one. She said the kids will never believe this.
• Grace said instead of Oh, and get that Don Budge fellow if he's available.She said you'll be playing like a pro in no time.
• Instead of Greer asking if the bath should have bubbles. Annie asks if the bath is all for her.
• Instead of Anette asking. Annie asks if the bed was for her.
