[ Master Of Ceremonies ]
On the pages ofAmerican folklore,

:15:06
a legion ofmighty men have left
the symbols oftheir greatness,

:15:10
There was Paul Bunyan ´s ax;
:15:13
John Henry´s hammer;
:15:17
Davy Crockett´s rifle;
:15:20
and then,
quite unexpectedly,

:15:22
one comes upon a tin pot hat,
a bag ofapple seed,,,

:15:26
and a holy book,
:15:28
And strangely enough,
these are the symbols of one
ofthe mightiest men ofall--

:15:34
John Chapman,
a real-life pioneer,

:15:38
With the passingyears, however,
reality has given way to legend,

:15:42
until today we know this remarkable man
simply as Johnny Appleseed,

:15:47
This is his story, told by
an old settler who knewJohnny well,

:15:52
Listen,
:15:54
[ Old Settler Narrating ] Well, sir,
every time I see an apple blossom sky,,,

:15:57
I think ofJohnny Appleseed,
:15:59
´cause, of course, them clouds up thar,
they ain ´t really clouds at all,
