Cindy

[Verse 1: Johnny Cash]

Well, I wish I was an apple hanging on a tree

And every time my Cindy passed, take a little bite of me

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you one day

[Verse 2: Nick Cave]

Well, Cindy is my honey, the sweetest in the south

When we kissed, the bees would all swarm around her mouth, so

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you some day

[Verse 3: Johnny Cash]

Well, I wish I had a needle and thread, fine as I could sew

I'd sew my Cindy to my side and down the road I'd go

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you one day

[Verse 4: Nick Cave]

Well, a-Cindy got religion, she's had it once before

She grabbed my ol' banjo, man, and threw it on the floor, well

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you one day

[Verse 5: Johnny Cash]

Well, it's apples in the summertime, peaches in the fall

If I can't have the gal I want, I won't have none at all

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave, Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you one day

(Johnny)

[Verse 6: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Cindy hugged and kissed me, she hung her head and cried

I swore she was the prettiest thing that ever lived or died

[Chorus: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Get along, home, Cindy, Cindy, get along home

Yeah, get along home, Cindy, Cindy

I'll marry you one day

[Outro: Johnny Cash & Nick Cave]

Yeah, I'll marry you one day

I'll marry you one day
