Samuel Howard Stept was an American songwriter who wrote for Broadway, Hollywood and the big bands. He almost never used his full middle name and became known simply as Sam Stept or Sam H. Stept. He was born in 1897, in Odessa, Russia, and came to the U.S. at the age of three where he then grew up in Pittsburgh. Early in his music career he worked for a local publishing house as staff pianist, then in vaudeville as accompanist to popular performers of the time. Steptalso wrote songs for Broadway shows like Yokel Boy (1939) and Michael Todd's Peep Show (1950). Stept's output slowed down in the late '40s, and by the late '50s, he was concentrating fully on his music-publishing business. Songs penned by Stept have been recorded by many other big names in pop and jazz,

With an upbeat tempo and a strong message, "Don't Sit Under the Apple Tree" was made extremely popular during World War Two. The apple tree referred to in the song is metaphoric of a wartime relationship. In spite of the distance brought about by war, the homebound lover is expecting his/her significant other to maintain loyalty and vice a versa. No one is to sit under the apple tree with another until the war is finished and the two partners can be together. It is sung from the perspective of both genders.

Its saying not to do all these things with "anybody else but me" so I think its a song about lovers. Also, I think its about how girls shouldn't leave their man while he is over seas fighting in the war. It relates to war in the same way.

Don't Sit Under The Apple Tree Lyrics
I wrote my mother, I wrote my father,
And now I'm writing you too.
I'm sure of mother, I'm sure of father,
And now I want to be sure of you.
Chorus:
Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me,
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, NO NO NO!
Don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Till I come marching home.
Don't go walking down lovers' lane with anyone else but me,
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me,
Don't go walking down lovers' lane with anyone else but me
Till I come marching home.
I just got word from a guy who heard
From the guy next door to me,
That a girl he met just loves to pet,
And it fits you to a "T".
So don't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but me
Till I come marching home.
(Last time, last two lines)
Then we'll go arm in arm, and
Sit down under the apple tree,
Baby, just you and me,
When I come marching home.
PARODY, GIRL'S REPLY
(sung by Marion Hutton with Glenn Miller Orch.)
Don't give out with those lips of yours
To anyone else but me,
Anyone else but me, anyone else but me, No No NO!
Lots of girls on the foreign shores,
You'll have to report to me
When you come marching home.
Don't hold anyone on your knee,
You better be true to me,
You better be true to me, you better be true to me.
Don't hold anyone on your knee,
You're getting the third degree
When you come marching home.
You're on your own where there is no phone,
And I can't keep tab on you.
Be fair to me, I'll guarantee
This is one thing that I'll do:
I won't sit under the apple tree with anyone else but you
Till you come marching home.
I know the apple tree is reserved for you and me,
And I'll be true till you come marching home.
