The Old Apple Tree

Mungo Jerry is a British rock group whose greatest success was in the early 1970s, though they have continued throughout the years with an ever-changing line-up, always fronted by Ray Dorset. They are remembered above all for their hit "In the Summertime". It remains their most successful and most instantly recognisable song, and their only hit outside of the UK. Their name was inspired by the poem "Mungojerrie and Rumpelteazer", from T. S. Eliot's Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats. According to Joseph Murrell's The Book of Golden Discs (1978), "Mungomania" was possibly the most startling and unpredicted pop phenomenon to hit Britain since The Beatles. more »

Since you left me, I've lost control
Since you left me, it's torn apart my very soul
I'm lonely, lonely and I'm blue
I just can't take, one more night without you

Since you left me, I'm torn apart
Since you left me, it's broken up my heart
My whole life's sad and I'm so blue
I just can't take, one more night without you

Every evening, every day, every hour, you know time just slips away 
Well I've tried, Lord how I've tried but nothing goes my way and all I do is cry

If I ever get you back, if I never, then you know I'm gonna crack
I'm lonely, lonely and I'm blue
I just can't take, one more night without you
