Mp3: Dolly Parton – Applejack Song Lyrics

Now, he lived by the apple orchard
In this little ole orchard shack
His real name was Jackson Taylor
But I called him AppleJack
Now, old AppleJack was loved
By everyone he ever knew

Of course, AppleJack picked apples

But he picked the banjo, too

Play a song for me AppleJack, AppleJack
Play a song for me, and I'll sing
Play a song for me AppleJack, AppleJack
Play a song, let your banjo ring

I'd go down to AppleJack's just almost everyday

We'd sit, and we'd drink applejack
That old AppleJack had made
Then he'd take his banjo down
And then he'd ask me if I'd sing
And he would play the banjo

And I'd play my tambourine

It sounds like this
‘Cept he played the banjo better than me, ha-ha
You hope so, don't ya?

Play a song for me AppleJack, AppleJack

Play a song, let your banjo ring
Clap your hands, this is your song
AppleJack would be proud of ya

Now, that's when I was just a kid

And now that I am grown
All I have are these memories
‘Cause old AppleJack, well, he's gone

Oh, but he left me his ole banjo
And it always takes me back
And everytime I play it

I still hear AppleJack
Clap your hands and sing

Play a song for me AppleJack, AppleJack
Play a song for me, and I'll sing (Well, now)
Play a song for me AppleJack, AppleJack
Play a song, let your banjo ring

One more time!
