Doctor Apple

Cody Higinbotham 1998

Lyric
The little girl walked with an apple in hand
And said hello to her brand new doctor
Before the doctor could say a command
He screamed and ran off, which really shocked her

Why did that happen? Was she in his way?
Then she realized, it was true what they say
An apple a day
Keeps the doctor away
