Neath the Crust of the Old Apple Pie
'Neath the crust of the old apple pie,
There is something for you and for I
It may be a pin that the cook has left in
Or it may be a wee little fly
(a package of black diamond dye)
Oh, it may be an old rusty nail
Or a piece of the pussycat's tail
(puppy dog's)
But whate'er it may be
It's for you and for me,
'Neath the crust of the old apple pie.
