As I draw the apple red
Closer to these lips of mine
Up above, the blue sky watches
Silent all the time
Never a word do apples say
They keep it all locked up inside
But I know how my apple feels
And what it conceals
Lovely, lovely apple mine,
Sweet little apple red and fine
That young girl is so sublime
Such a fine and mellow girl
She's the apple of my eye
The oyster's favorite pearl
People are talking--what is this?
Who spread the rumor, I don't know
They say a cute little sneeze or two
Means she thinks of you
Lovely, lovely girl of mine,
Sweet little maiden young and fine
In the morning, when we meet
In the evening, when we part
Whispering sweet nothings
To my rosy young sweetheart
You turn to me so dreamily
Without any words it's clear to see
"Tomorrow, I'll be seeing you.
But for now adieu."
Lovely, lovely sweetheart mine,
Sweet little maiden young and fine
Shall we sing this winsome tune
This endearing apple song?
It's more fun when sung by two
Let's sing it all day long
When we all sing it, everyone
Grows happier with each lyric sung
Now we know how the apple feels
Notihing to conceal
Merry, merry friends of mine,
We'll have a future bright and fine
