Intro

     

Verse 1

Woah I wake up in the mornin'
With my hair down in my eyes and she says hi
Gm N.C.
And I stumble to the breakfast table
While the kids are goin' off to school goodbye
F7 N.C.
And she reaches out and takes my hand
Squeezes it and says (how ya feelin', hon?) 
And I look across at smilin' lips
That warm my heart and see my mornin' sun

Pre-Chorus

And if that's not lovin' me (lovin’ me)
Then all I've gotta say (got to say)

Chorus

Oh, God didn't make little green apples
It don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime   
And there's no such thing as Dr. Seuss
Disneyland, Mother Goose, there’s no nursery rhyme
God didn't make little green apples
and it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime  
And when my self is feelin' low
I think about her face aglow to ease my mind

Interlude

     
     

Verse 2

Sometimes I call her up at home knowin' she's busy (she’s busy)
And ask if she could get away and meet me
And grab a bite to eat (a bite to eat)
And she drops what she's doin' and hurries down to meet me
I'm always late
She sits waitin' patiently and smiles when she first sees me
'cause she's made that way

Pre-Chorus

If that's not lovin' me (lovin’ me)
Woah all I've gotta say (got to say)

Chorus

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't snow in Minneapolis when the winter comes  
And there's no such thing as make believe,
puppy dogs and autumn leaves and BB guns

Outro

God didn't make little green apples
And it don't rain in Indianapolis in the summertime
