In The Shade Of The Old Apple Tree    (1905)

In the shade of the old apple tree
Where the love in your eyes I could see
Where the voice that I heard
Like the song of a bird
Seemed to whisper sweet music to me

I could hear the dull buzz of the bee
In the blossoms as you said to me
"With a heart that is true
I'll be waiting for you
In the shade of the old apple tree."

Lyrics by Harry Williams.
Composed by Egbert Van Alstyne.
Recorded by Henry Burr; Louis Armstrong and the Mills Brothers; many others.
