Cat Stevens - The Laughing Apple lyrics

Slowly let me tell you a story of a tree An apple tree, Once in a summertime garden lived a little apple tree And the man who owned it wanted it to be picked So he sent forth to hire me Well, i've travelled the mountains, and i've travelled the sea But a never in my travelling days Have i ever seen a little apple smile at me! Laugh, oh laugh a little apple Autumn is waitin', you'd better be careful, For it will bring you down If it ever sees you wearing a frown So laugh, laugh a little apple Well all the apples were hidin' Frightened that they might be plucked And everytime that somebody pa**ed All except that one little apple ducked Well, i've travelled the mountains, and i've travelled the sea But a never in my travelling days Have i ever seen a little apple smile at me! Laugh, oh laugh a little apple Autumn is waitin', you'd better be careful, For it will bring you down If it ever sees you wearing a frown So laugh, laugh a little apple
