Lyrics:
Walk outside the house before the sun is up
The ponies in town are sleeping but the Apples are not
It's the beginning of another day
Can't spend another minute on the hay

Grab something to eat then feed the pigs in their pen
The noise they make keeps me company when
I watch the moon make way in the sky
For the elder princess' celestial charge

The freshness of the morning air remains with me
As I walk back to the orchard where todays work awaits
Among the apple trees

Bucking the days away with a smile upon my face
Keeping alive the family ways

While big brother works the fields with the old plow
Little sis and I help granny bake and I'm thinking about
Racing through the whitetail woods last fall
A blur of rainbow colors clouding it all

Walk into town to meet my friends
We're having a party at the corner again
And I wouldn't miss it for the world, no
It's always magical when I'm with the girls

The beautiful and tranquil night
Descends upon me as I head back home
And I just can't hold back a smile
Not when I feel so fine

Bucking the days away with a smile upon my face
Keeping alive the family ways

[WhitenedInk]

Um... do you think you could provide the lyrics? I want to sing to this so badly it's not even funny.

[PutTrustInFate]

@WhitenedInk I doubt ButNotTonight would mind. ^.^ The lyrics are now in the description. Just click "Show More."

[EBlueAlex]

Dude, reckon you could provide a 320kbps download? This is pure awesome, and I'd love to put it on my hi-fi so all the neighbours can hear it too. xD

[PutTrustInFate]

@EBlueAlex ^^^^ Look up. Click "Show More" under the description. Click the link beside "Download MP3: " :)

[EBlueAlex]

@PutTrustInFate No, yeah, I meant if you could upload a higher bitrate download?

128kbps doesn't work all too well on a hi-fi. xD

[PutTrustInFate]

@EBlueAlex Aaand I'm an idiot. Download link should now be fixed to provide the 320kbps version. ^.^ (Also sent you a version via email.)

[ButNotTonight]

Oh man, I love this so much! Honestly, I think you did a much better job in every aspect than I did; now I'm even kind of embarrassed at my version because of how awesome this is. I mean, your singing is fantastic and mine is just terrible, haha. By the way, did I tell you that I love this? I did? Too bad, I'll say it again. I freaking love this.

[PutTrustInFate]

@ButNotTonight :$ You are too kind! Besides, it's a completely different genre! I can't compete with with your awesome 80's "The Cure"-type sound. I absolutely love (and am unable to recreate, btw,) your electronic background instruments that are ping-ponged behind the second verse. And finally-- take pride that your music inspired someone to spend a week creating a cover version. ^.^

This song, tells a story.

The music starts, you wake up as Applejack,

live a day in Equestria through her,

fall asleep and the music ends.

And you're put back in the real world with a better understanding of what your life should and could be like.

[ANZULonDA]

DAAM BEUTIFULL SONG!

[Lucario1121]

(let see how can I say this without sounding weird

I LOVE THIS SONG THIS SONG IS LIKE AS SCREWATTACK SAID HAVING SEX WITH BACON IN YOUR EARS. OMG I CAN'T STOP LISTEN DUDE MARRY ME (too much :/)

Sorry had to, in all seriousness though dude I love this song lol. Eventually after getting the Smile Charity album I got use to And the Rainfall original but yours is just so up lighting and I love how its about Applejack. It hard trying to find awesome lyrical music about her

Keep on rocking dude :)

[goldenpsyco]

FFFFF....

Stop being so damn talented or i shall be forced to steal your voice for my own!

But seriously, This is nice. You own this genre

[mrlothario]

That vocal slide* you do at 2:21 is a thing of beauty. Every time this song comes up in my playlist, I look forward to that moment.

*Totally not the real term, my musical vocabulary is limited, heh.

[polyboy94]

I liked this song a lot, but i keep hearing "fucking" instead of "bucking" ><

[nerothewizard]

I loved the original off the "Smile" album, but this? OMIGOSH OMIGOSH OMIGOSH.

[thedude97000]

@PutTrustInFate

seriously man,your awesome,u should already be making money of these.

[mrlothario]

This is seriously wonderful. The lyrics 'Tonight wrote and your performance make a kind of alchemy, where the whole is greater than the sum of its parts. It makes me happy to listen to this. The chorus is especially delightful.
