Capo 1

                                                    
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
