Apple Picker's Reel - C

APPLE PICKER'S REEL

(chorus)

Hey, ho, makes you feel so fine

Looking out across the orchard in the bright sunshine.

Hey, ho, makes you feel so free

Standing at the top of an apple tree.

Up in the morning before the sun

I don't get home until the day is done;

My pick-sack's heavy and my shoulder's sore

But I'll be back tomorrow to pick some more.

Chorus

Start at the bottom and you pick 'em from the ground

And you pick that tree clean all the way around;

Then you set up your ladder and you climb up high

And you're looking through the leaves at the clear blue sky.

Chorus

Hey, ho, makes you feel so down

Picking up windfalls, crawling on the ground.

Hey, ho, makes you feel so free

Standing at the top of an apple tree.

Hey, ho, you lose your mind

If you sing this song about a hundred times;

Hey, ho, makes you feel so free

Standing in the top of an apple tree.

Chorus
