Where's the queen of my parade?
She ain't coming back.
Only thing she left me is this
Appleblossom rag.
Oh the appleblossom rag
Oh such sweet refrain.
And underneath the chords the thorns
That cause such awful pain.
This new gang's the gang for me
Always on the town.
Oh the stories I could tell
If I felt like it now.
This new gang's the gang for me
I know all of their names.
And they know mine and then they don't
They love me just the same.
Oh the appleblossom rag
Oh for such a knife
That from my blood could love unbraid
Without taking my life.
This new girl's the girl for me
Best girl that I know.
Never asks me where I've been
Or when I'm coming home.
This new girl's got a real fork tongue
I love the way she lies.
False young painted devil
But I know so it's alright.
Oh the appleblossom rag
Lord I'm such a fool.
For things that seem so sweet and sad
And are so goddamn cruel.
(Last verse x2)
