Dear Mrs. Applebee 
I've gotta get somethin' off my chest 
Mrs. Applebee 
You've got the wrong idea about me 
Mrs. Applebee 
You told Marie she couldn't go 
With me because you heard that I was bad 

Mrs. Applebee, please hear my plea 
Don't you know that anyone can change 
Mrs. Applebee?
And for Marie I'd even swim the sea 
Mrs. Applebee
I'm begging you to please be kind 
I want a chance to change your mind about me 
Mrs. Applebee
 
Dear Mrs. Applebee
I know that I once made some bad mistakes 
Mrs. Applebee
But that was long before I loved Marie 
Mrs. Applebee 
I'll make you glad as you can be
And you'll be proud to see Marie with me 
Mrs. Applebee, Mrs. Applebee ....
