(The rest of the Apples applaud after the previous song ends)

[Apple Rose]
That was wonderful. After all these years, I didn't know you still had some funk in you.

[Auntie Applesauce]
Applejack, why don't you sing that song you, Apple Fritter, and Peachy Sweet sang during your beauty pageant days?

(Applejack gives a shocked look and starts to blush)

[Applejack]
Uh... I... uh...

[Apple Fritter]
Come on, Applejack! Can we sing it again?

(She and Peachy Sweet come in wearing red plaid dresses)

[Applejack]
(weirded out)

Oh... you guys still have the dresses.

[Peachy Sweet]
Mm-hmm. So can we sing it again?

[Applejack]
(Rolls her eyes)

Fine!

(She stares at Braeburn)

But if you record this, I will never forgive you.

(Braeburn puts away his video camera. Applejack goes into the crowd and Apple Fritter and Peachy Sweet stand in cutesy poses as the music starts.)

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
Hello!

(Applejack comes in)

[Applejack]
I love you, a bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck and a hug around the neck
Hug around the neck and a barrel and a heap
A barrel and a heap and I'm talkin' in my sleep
About you

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
About you!

[Applejack]
About you

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
My heart is leapin'
I'm havin' trouble sleepin'

[Applejack]
'Cos I love you, a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do

[All 3]
Doodle-oodle-oodle
Doodle-oodle-oodle
Doodle-oodle-oodle-oo

[Applejack]
I love you, a bushel and a peck
A bushel and a peck, though it beats me all to heck
Beats me all to heck how I'll ever tend the farm
Ever tend the farm when I want to keep my arms
About you

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
About you!

[Applejack]
About you

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
The cows and chickens
Are goin' to the dickens!

[Applejack]
'Cos I love you, a bushel and a peck
You bet your pretty neck I do

[All 3]
Doodle-oodle-oodle
Doodle-oodle-oodle
Doodle-oodle-oodle-oo

[Apple Fritter, Peachy Sweet]
Goodbye, now!
