David Garrick Dear Mrs. Applebee

Dear Misses Applebee,
I gotta get something off my chest.
Misses Applebee, you’ve got the wrong idea about me.
Misses Applebee, you told Marie she couldn’t go
with me because you heard that I was bad.
Misses Applebee, please hear my plea.
Don’t you know that anyone can change,
Misses Applebee?
And for Marie I’d even swim the sea Misses Applebee,
I’m begging you to please be kind I want a chance
to change your mind about me, Misses Applebee.

Dear Misses Applebee
I know that I once made some bad mistakes,
Misses Applebee.
But that was long before I met Marie.
Misses Applebee, I’ll make you glad as you can be
and you’ll be proud to see Marie with me,
Misses Applebee, Misses Applebee...
