lyrics

I knew a man who was ten feet tall,
I knew a man who could climb up the wall,
I knew a man who went down on one knee,
Apple tree

I met a maid, she was all up and made,
With her life in her hands, her expenses all paid,
By the lord up above, who said she was saved,
Apple tree

Oh apple tree, you look lovely to me,
Your fruit is so red, so soft and so shiny,
Oh apple tree, you look lovely to me,
If i shake your branches, will you drop some for me?

All of my life, I've worked in the garden,
I work for no money, and I've got no children,
My fingers are green, but my heart is broken,
Apple tree

As the season is turning my hair's turning colour
To grey, as i grow old i think of my mother,
She loved me i missed her now she's buried under,
The tree

Oh apple tree, you look lovely to me,
Your fruit is so red, so soft and so shiny,
Oh apple tree, you look lovely to me,
If i shake your branches, will you drop some for me?
