Cornmeal mush is all you took for 30,000 miles on foot.
Come inside, stay a while. Ill fix you things to eat.
Ill offer you some clothes too loose, a soft bed and someone elses shoes.
Come inside, stay a while, rest your tired feet.
Haunted by a recurring dream
Of the girl you left hanging from an apple tree,
Johnny Appleseed wanders the countryside,
Keeping to his task to keep out the rest.
Johnny Appleseed, right fresh from heaven sighed:
Please, let me make it up to strangers.
In Ohio, all the farmers wives thanked you with fresh apple pies
And hurried to mend the tears in your pants.
Dumbfounded by their kindness and embarrassed by your shyness,
You slipped out the backdoor at the first chance.
(chorus)
The famished cow you rescued from the wealthy rotten Farmer John
Offered, in gratitude, to turn itself to gold.
But you declined the offer, saying: That was not for profit,
And ushered the straggler back into her fold.
