Apple Tree

It was a stormy night
You know the kind where the lightning strike
And I was hanging out wit some of my artsy friends
Ooh-wee-ooh-wee-oooh
The night was long the night went on
People cooling out until the break of dawn
Incense was burning so I'm feeling right (aight)

See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
And ganny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around trying to be what I'm not
I don't waste my time trying to get what you got
I work at pleasing me cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo-wee doo-wee do-wee-ee-ee

And if you don't wanna be down with me
(You don't wanna pick from my apple tree)
And if you don't want be down with me
(Then you don't wanna pick from my apple tree)
And if you don't wanna be down with me
(Then you don't wanna pick from my apple tree)
And if you don't wanna be down with me
(You just don't wanna be down)

See, I have a hoe
And I take it everywhere I go
'Cause I'm planting seeds
So I reaps what I sow (ya know), ya know
Oh on and on, and on and on
My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone
I can't control the soul flowing in me
Ooh-wee

See, I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
And ganny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around trying to be what I'm not
Catching a motherfucker trying to get what I got
I work at pleasing me cause I can't please you
And that's why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo-wee-ee-ee

And if you don't wanna be down with me
(You don't wanna pick from my apple tree)
And if you don't want be down with me
Ya dum dum diddy
And if you don't want be down with me
You don't wanna pick from my apple tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
You just don't wanna be down

Over here, I want y'all to sing
Oh my my my (oh my my my)
Oh my my my (oh my my my)
Oh my my my (oh my my my)
Oh m-m-m-m-my
M-m-my, m-m-m, m-m-m
Ohh on and on and on and on
(My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone)
Oh on and on, and on and on
(My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone)
I go on, uh-hh, oh-hh, oh-oh
(My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone)
Uh-oh, uh oh, ohhh, on on on
(My cipher keeps moving like a rolling stone)
