The Old Apple Tree - Bob Crosby[00:00:00]
Oh The old apple tree in the orchard[00:00:29]
Lives in my memory[00:00:34]
Cause it reminds me of my Pappy[00:00:38]
He was handsome young and happy[00:00:41]
When he planted the old apple tree[00:00:43]
Say "Goodbye" say "Goodbye"[00:00:48]
Say "Goodbye" to the old apple tree[00:00:52]
If my Pappy had a knowed it[00:00:57]
He'd be sorry that he growed it[00:01:00]
Cause he died on the old apple tree[00:01:02]
Then one day Pappy took Widder Norton[00:01:07]
Out on a jamboree[00:01:12]
And when he took her home at sun-up[00:01:16]
Brother Norton raised his gun up[00:01:19]
And chased Pappy up in the tree[00:01:21]
Say "Goodbye" say "Goodbye"[00:01:26]
Say "Goodbye" to the old apple tree[00:01:31]
If my Pappy had a knowed it[00:01:36]
He'd be sorry that he growed it[00:01:38]
Cause he died on the old apple tree[00:01:41]
When the neighbors came after my Pappy[00:01:46]
Up in the tree was he[00:01:51]
The neighbors took a rope and strung him[00:01:55]
By the neck and then they hung him[00:01:58]
To a branch of the old apple tree[00:02:00]
Say "Goodbye" say "Goodbye"[00:02:05]
Say "Goodbye" to the old apple tree[00:02:10]
If my Pappy had a knowed it[00:02:14]
He'd be sorry that he growed it[00:02:17]
Cause he died on the old apple tree[00:02:19]
Now my poor Pappy lies in the orchard[00:02:24]
Out of his misery[00:02:30]
They put the apples in the basket[00:02:34]
Chopped the tree down for a casket[00:02:36]
And my poor Pappy's gone with the tree[00:02:39]
Say "Goodbye" say goodbye[00:02:44]
Say "Goodbye" to the old apple tree[00:02:48]
If my Pappy had'a knowed it[00:02:53]
He'd be sorry that he growed it[00:02:56]
Cause he died on the old apple tree[00:02:58]
