Album: The Guard Years
One, two, three, four
I wish I was an apple, a-hangin' on a tree
and every time my Cindy passed, she'd take a bite of me
Chorus:
Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you some time
Cindy got religion She had it once before
but when she heard my ole banjo, she's the first one on the floor
Chorus
She told me that she loved me She called me "sugar plum"
She throwed her arms around me I thought my time had come!
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home
Get along home, Cindy, Cindy, I'll marry you some time
Get along home
Wished I had a dollar Wished I had a dime
I'd buy a jar of cider and stay happy all the time
Chorus
The last time I saw Cindy she had a funny look
She opened her mouth and then she said, "Ya'll sign my autograph book?"
Chorus (2X)
