Discover the story of the song > Little Green Apples – Bobbie Gentry

The song is about a woman who wakes up in the morning and her partner asks her how she's feeling. They have kids who go off to school, and she sometimes meets up with her partner for meals, even though she's often late. The chorus talks about how God didn't make "little green apples" and how certain things don't happen in Indianapolis, but when she's feeling down, she thinks about her partner's face and feels better.
