Don`t Sit Under The Apple Tree
Don't Sit Under The Apple Tree
Don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, no, no, no
Don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
‘Til I come marchin’ home …
Don’t go walkin’ down Lovers’ Lane with anyone else but me
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, no, no, no
Don’t go walkin’ down Lovers’ Lane with anyone else but me
‘Til I come marchin’ home
I just got word from a guy who heard
From the guy next door to me
The girl he met just loves to pet
And it fits you to a T
So, don’t sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
‘Til I come marchin’ home

"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (With Anyone Else but Me)" is a popular song that was made famous by Glenn Miller and by the Andrews Sisters during World War II. Its lyrics are the words of two young lovers who pledge their fidelity while one of them is away serving in the war.[1]
Originally titled "Anywhere the Bluebird Goes",[2] the melody was written by Sam H. Stept as an updated version of the nineteenth-century English folk song "Long, Long Ago".[3] Lew Brown and Charles Tobias wrote the lyrics and the song debuted in the 1939 Broadway musical Yokel Boy. After the United States entered the war in December 1941, Brown and Tobias modified the lyrics to their current form, with the chorus ending with "...till I come marching home".[2] [Wikipedia]
