Song Name: Five to Nine
Subtitle: Demo 1
Original Name: MLP_5to9_PianoDemo_041017
Key: C major
---
There are five demos for this song, each of them seemingly dated. This one is from April 10th, 2017.
---
Differences with the final song:
- Intro at the beginning giving a background to Applejack. I'm not sure if "Canterlot Way" is ever canonically stated to be a street in Equestria Girls.
- Song seems to be in C major instead of A flat major.
- Minor lyrical changes in the chorus.
- Different rhyme in the spoken section (hogs / logs instead of cows / how).
- Additional verse of "Keepin' busy is keepin' good / Keep on goin' just like you should", during which Applejack greets the rest of the Main 7/EqG crew/whatever.
- No snoring from exhaustion at the end of the song.
- No "Yeehaw" in the second half of the song.

Lyrics:
[
Howdy, mornin'!
Well down home, out Canterlot Way
Is a spunky gal who starts her day
She goes by the name of Applejack
Has a Granny called Smith and a brother named Mac
But enough about me, let's get on back
To the girl on a mission to pick up the slack
]
Before the sun comes up
You gotta start your rocket boosters
Rise and shine, I'm feelin' fine
Wake up, Mr. Rooster
The early bird gets the worm
The sunrise makes me squirm
Oh[-woah], keepin' busy is keepin' good
Keep [it] goin' # like you should
Call me crazy, misunderstood
But you won't hear me complain
'Cause I got time to spare
[And] fun to share
My friends along
# Job well done by the break of daaaaawn
So many things need gettin' done
Around the neighborhood
So, get to work and get it done
Before the gettin' goin' gets good
Most people dread the grit and grime
But elbow grease works every time
[Oh] Keepin' busy is keepin' good
Keep [it] goin' # like you should
Call me crazy, misunderstood
But you won't hear me complain
'Cause I got time to spare
[And] fun to share
My friends along
# Job well done by the break of dawn
Count my chickens, [feed the hogs]
Hang those lights [and saw some logs]
Invite my friends [and] clean the barn (#)
Strum a guitar and sing this yarn! ['Cause]
Keepin' busy is keepin' good
Keep [it] goin' # like you should
[Hiya, girls!
Keepin' busy is keepin' good
Keep [it] goin' # like you should]
Call me crazy, misunderstood
But you won't hear me complain (Yee-haw!)
'Cause I got time to spare
[And] fun to share
My friends along
# Job well done by the break of dawn
