The Apple Barn
(c) Sept 2007, Rebecca Dale Peaden (BMI)/Moker Jarrett (ASCAP)
I was needin' a break - I'd had all I could take - of my hillbilly roommate
Then he asked me if I - wanted to take a ride - and do something a little different
I grabbed some clothes - we hit the road - I slept while he drove
Woke up to a honking horn - and I'll be darn - if we were'nt sitting on a farm
He said it's picking time - and you'll do fine - folks need to make wine
And pawpaw and pops - they got a big crop - and can use all the help they can get
And "hey slick" - that chick's my sister - she'll cut you to the quick
I thought hmmm all's not lost - with my fingers crossed - I'll melt that frost
Chorus:
Harvest time in the Apple Barn
It was instant chemistry for me
Can't think of anywhere I'd rather be stuck
Making wine and memories
Well I never worked so hard - but it was in the cards - she let down her guard
We spent days picking fruit - drinking fresh apple juice - and nights picking at each other
And I couldn't help but stare - at her auburn hair - yeah we made a good pair
And when the stars were aligned - we both saw the signs - guess she read my mind
Chorus:
Harvest time in the Apple Barn
It was instant chemistry for me
Can't think of anywhere I'd rather be stuck
Making wine and memories
Bridge:
Ten years and two kids later
I watchem' from the tractor
As she drives'em 'round in the gator
I smile when I hear their laughter
Chorus:
Harvest time in the Apple Barn
It was instant chemistry for me
Can't think of anywhere I'd rather be stuck
Making wine and memories
