Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (with Anyone Else but Me)

"Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree (with Anyone Else but Me)" is a popular song that was made famous by Glenn Miller and by the Andrews Sisters during World War II.

[3] Lew Brown and Charles Tobias wrote the lyrics and the song debuted in the 1939 Broadway musical Yokel Boy.

After the United States entered the war in December 1941, Brown and Tobias modified the lyrics to their current form, with the chorus ending with "...till I come marching home".

[2] "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree" remained in Your Hit Parade's first place from October 1942 through January 1943.

[4] On February 18, 1942, Glenn Miller and his Orchestra recorded the song with vocals by Tex Beneke, Marion Hutton, and The Modernaires.
