Don't ya tell henry, Apple's got your fly.
E I went down to the river on a saturday morn,
A-lookin' around just to see who's born.
I found a little chicken down on his knees,
I went up and yelled to him,please, please, please!
He said, don't ya tell henry, A Don't ya tell henry, B7 Don't ya tell henry, (n.c.) e (turnaround) Apple's got your fly.
E I went down to the corner at a-half past ten,
I's lookin' around, I wouldn't say when.
I looked down low, I looked above,
And who did I see but the one I love. A She said, don't ya tell henry, E Don't ya tell henry, B Don't ya tell henry, A (n.c.) e Apple's got your fly.
E Now, I went down to the beanery at half past twelve,
A-lookin' around just to see myself. A I spotted a horse and a donkey, too, E I looked for a cow and I saw me a few. A They said, don't ya tell henry, E Don't ya tell henry, B Don't ya tell henry, A (n.c.) e Apple's got your fly.
Now, I went down to the pumphouse the other night, A-lookin' around, it was outa sight. I looked high and low for that big ol' tree, I did go upstairs but I didn't see nobody but me. I said, don't ya tell henry, Don't ya tell henry, Don't ya tell henry, Apple's got your fly. |
