Apple Jack (Video)

Well, he lived by the apple orchard, in his li'l ole orchard shack    
And his name was Jackson Taylor, but we all called him "Apple Jack"
And old Apple Jack was loved by everyone he ever knew 
And Apple Jack picked apples, but he'd pick the banjo, too.

(Chorus:)     
Play a song for me, Apple Jack, Apple Jack        
Play a song for me, and I'll sing             
Play a song for me, Apple Jack, Apple Jack      
Play a song, let your banjo ring!

I'd go down to Apple Jack's just almost everyday
We'd sit and we'd drink applejack that old Apple Jack had made
Then he'd take that banjo down, and then he'd ask me if I'd sing
And he would play the banjo, and I'd play my tambourine.

Chorus

Instrumental

That's when I was just a kid, and now that I am grown
all I have are memories, but old Apple Jack is gone
Oh, but he left me his banjo, and it always takes me back
And every time I play it, I still hear Apple Jack.

Chorus (bis)
