lyrics

Momma said a thousand times stay out the woods when it gets night
But I like to live on the edge so I took you to that famous ledge (after park hours)
For awhile we was on our own, suddenly we were not alone
Shaky branches, the click of sticks, and that howl I can’t forget

Planned a picnic in the moonlight
Brought some biscuits and some fruit
You’re the apple of my eye
Abandoned blanket when we ran from the apple-snitch’s Hands
Short and hairy, sorta scary, clearly hungry and unafraid
Took just the red delicious back to its cave

Who can say which it prefers
Maybe gala, maybe goldspur
Granny Smith or Paula Red, maybe Zestar, Harlsen, Kingston Black, or Arianne

Planned a picnic in the moonlight
Brought some biscuits and some fruit
You’re the apple of my eye
Abandoned blanket when we ran from the apple-snitch’s Hands
Short and hairy, sorta scary, clearly hungry and unafraid
Took just the red delicious back to its cave
Guess the rumours they were tru
And Chickie’s Rock is where they roost
You could see one too
If you’re lucky,
Well maybe it’s unlucky.
