The rider pulled up his horse
and smiled down on little Johnny,

How about you, my lad?
Have you a -hankering to see what's to
the side of the Allegheny Mountains?
Indeed I do, sir,
after my little apple trees?
Why, Joshua, my lad,
what's a few apple trees when
there's land?
Land just achin' to be taken
to the side of the mountain.
Miles and miles of it.
Oh, but what good is all that land,
if there are no apple trees
a -growin' on it?
Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha.
Hey, if you ask me, my lad,
what good is apple trees?
Why, sir, there's nothin'
more beautiful
than an apple tree.
Oh, you don't say now.
Yes, sir, and you can make most
anything from apples.
Oh, like what, for instance?
Apples that are good to eat,
Apples that are good to sizzle,
And apple pie and apple tart,
Apple jelly, spice, and candy,

And lots more.
All just from apples.
Why, there's apple dumping,
apple fritters,
Oh, my lad, I believe you, deed I do,
deed I do.
You know, my lad,
I'm thinking you should turn your eyes to the west.
Plenty of land for apple planting
there.
Before long,
there'll be plenty of mouths
a -hankering for the taste of
them.
Think on it, lad.

for many a day and many a month.
His eyes kept turning to the west,

Then one day he made up his mind.
Yes sir, I'm going west
and I'm gonna

And so he did.

up with apple seeds,
then made his way
through the wilderness
over the Allegheny mountains

What are you burying in the ground, boy?
