Wish I was a June Apple
Hanging on a tree
Every time my true love passed
She’d take a little bite of me
Going across the mountain
I’m Going in a swing
When I get on the other side
I’m gonna hear my woman sing
Don’t you hear that banjo saying
I wish that gal was mine
Can’t you hear that banjo saying
I wish that gal was mine
Charlie he’s a nice young man
Charlie he’s a dandy
Charlie he’s a nice young
He feeds the gals on candy
Over the river to feed my sheep
Over the river Charlie
Over the river to feed my sheep
Feed them on barley
Wish I had some sticks and poles
Build my chimney higher
Everytime it rains or snows
Puts out all my fire
