Red Apples Lyrics by Cat Power
Clean Lyric
Paragraph Lyric
I went down to the river
To meet the widow
She gave me an apple
And it was red

I slept in her black arms
For a century
She wanted nothing in return
I gave her nothing in return

The ghost of her husband
Beautiful as a horse
Pulled up an apple cart
Full of millions of red apples for us
Full of millions of red apples for us

I went down to the river
To meet the widow
She gave me an apple
And it was red

I slept in her black arms
For a century
She wanted nothing in return
I gave her nothing in return

I went down to the river
To meet the widow
I went down to the river    To meet the widow    She gave me an apple    And it was red       I slept in her black arms    For a century    She wanted nothing in return    I gave her nothing in return       The ghost of her husband    Beautiful as a horse    Pulled up an apple cart    Full of millions of red apples for us    Full of millions of red apples for us       I went down to the river    To meet the widow    She gave me an apple    And it was red       I slept in her black arms    For a century    She wanted nothing in return    I gave her nothing in return       I went down to the river    To meet the widow
