He lived by the apple orchard in this little old orchard shack His real name was Jackson Taylor but I called him Applejack Now old Applejack was loved by everyone he ever knew Applejack picked apples but he picked the banjo too. Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song for me and I’ll sing Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song let your banjo ring. Now I’d go down to Applejack’s almost everyday We’d sit and we’d drink applejack that old Applejack had made Then he’d take his banjo down then he’d ask me if I’d sing And he would play the banjo and I’d play my tambourine. Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song for me and I’ll sing Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song let your banjo ring. That’s when I was just a kid and now that I am grown All I have are memories old Applejack is gone Oh but he left me his banjo and it always takes me back And everytime I play it I still hear Applejack. Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song for me and I’ll sing Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song let your banjo ring. Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song for me and I’ll sing Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song let your banjo ring. One more time Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song for me and I’ll sing Play a song for me Applejack Applejack Play a song let your banjo ring....

À propos de la chanson

La chanson évoque une belle amitié entre le narrateur et un homme, connu sous le nom d'Applejack, qui vivait près d'un verger. Ils passaient du temps ensemble, partageant des moments de convivialité autour de bonnes boissons, tout en jouant de la musique avec un banjo et un tambourin. Le narrateur se remémore ces instants joyeux, soulignant le lien profond qu'ils avaient, même si Applejack n'est plus là aujourd'hui. Les souvenirs de leur complicité et de la musique continuent de vivre à travers le banjo que lui a laissé son ami.
