Lyrics
I'll meet you under the fig tree
Down by the apple tree
I'll meet you under the fig tree
I'll be there you'll see
I'll meet you under the fig tree
And we'll go dancing home
I'll meet you up on the high street
Down by the Applebee's
I'll meet you up on the high street
I'll be there you'll see
I'll meet you up on the high street
And we'll go dancing home
Chorus
And oh oh the sun is shining
Oh oh way up high
Ah ah I think it's smiling
On you and I
I'll meet you up on the high street
Down by the Applebee's
I'll meet you up on the high street
I'll be there you'll see
I'll meet you up on the high street
And we'll go dancing home
Chorus
And oh oh the sun is shining
Oh oh way up high
Ah ah I think it's smiling
On you and I
Fig tree, fig tree, reminds me a little bit of you and me
Fig tree, fig tree, reminds me a little bit of you and me
Fig tree, fig tree, reminds me
I'll meet you under the fig tree
I'll meet you under the fig tree
I'll meet you under the fig tree
And we'll go dancing home
