I wish I was an apple a hangin' in a tree Wish you were another one a hangin' there by me Wish I was a bluebird a flyin' in the sky Wish you were another one a flyin' by my side Well, I wish I may and I wish I might Have my wish come true For if I had three wishes I would wish 'em all for you. --- Instrumental --- I wish I was a flower a blooming every day And every morning you would come pick me for your bouquet Wish I was a whippoorwill with voice so clear and bright I'd sit outside your window and sing you to sleep at night.
Well, I wish I may and I wish I might Have my wish come true For if I had three wishes I would wish 'em all for you. --- Instrumental --- Wish I was a speckled trout a swimmin' in a brook And if you had a fishin' pole I'd jump upon your hook Wish I was the evenin' star for everyone to see I'd shine a little brighter every time you look at me. Well, I wish I may and I wish I might Have my wish come true For if I had three wishes I would wish 'em all for you...
