He lived by the apple orchard in this little orchard shack
His real name was Jackson Taylor but I called him Apple Jack
Now old Apple Jack was loved by everyone he ever knew
Apple Jack picked apples but he picked 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
Now I'd go down to Apple Jack's almost everyday
We'd sit and we'd drink applejack that old Apple Jack had made
Then he'd take his banjo down then he'd ask me if I'd sing
And he would play the banjo and I'd play my tambourine
Chorus
That's when I was just a kid and now that I am grown
All I have are memories, 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 3 times
