The Laughing Tree

[Intro]
Slowly
Let me tell you a story
Lover tree
An apple tree

[Verse 1]
Once in a summertime garden
Lived a little apple tree
And the man who owned it
Wanted it to be picked
And so he sent for to hire me

[Pre Chorus]
Well I've traveled the mountains
And I've traveled the sea
But never in my traveling days
Have I ever seen a little apple smile at me

[Chorus]
So laugh, laugh a little apple
Autumn is waiting
You better be careful
And it'll bring you down
If it ever sees you wearing a frown
So laugh, laugh a little apple

[Verse 2]
Well all the apples were hiding
Frightened that they might be plucked
And every time somebody passed
All except that one little apple ducked

[Pre Chorus]
Well I've traveled the mountains
And I've traveled the sea
But never in my traveling days
Have I ever seen a little apple smile at me

[Chorus]
Laugh, laugh a little apple
Autumn is waiting
You better be careful
And it'll bring you down
If it ever sees you wearing a frown
So laugh, laugh a little apple
Laugh, laugh a little apple
Autumn is waiting
You better be careful
And it'll bring you down
If it ever sees you wearing a frown
So laugh, laugh a little apple
