Ma, I Miss Your Apple Pie
Performed by The Jesters
Recorded August 25, 1941
Written by John Jacob Loeb and Carmen Lombardo
My brother Bill is in the army now
We heard from him today
His waist's not getting back to normal now
Here's what he had to say:
Ma, I miss your apple pie
Ma, I miss your stew
Ma, they're treating me alright
But they can't cook like you
Oh, Ma, nobody's spoiling me
Like you used to do
They won't let me stay in bed until noon
At five-forty-five they play me a tune
Oh, Ma, I miss your apple pie
And by the way, I miss you too
The army is swell, and good for a guy
But one thing it lacks is your apple pie
Oh, Ma
