Apple Tree Lyrics
I'd like to dedicate this to all the children
I have some food in my bag for you
Not the edible food, the food you eat, no
Perhaps some food for thought
Since knowledge is infinite
It has infinitely fell on me, so um...
It was a stormy night
You know the kind where the lightnin strike
And I was hangin out with some my yatzhee friends
Ooh wee ooh wee ooh wee
The night was long
The night went on
People coolin out until the break of dawn
Incense was burnin so I'm feelin right, aight
See I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My 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 pleasin me
Cos 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 doo wee
And if you don't want to be down with me
Then you don't want to pick from my
Apple tree [x3]
And if you don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down
I have a hoe
And I take it everywhere I go
Cos I'm plantin seeds so I reaps what I sow
Ya know, ya know
On and on, and on and on
My body keep's movin like a rollin stone
I can't control the soul flowin in me
Ooh wee ooh wee
See I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My 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 ya got
I work at pleasin me
Cos 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 doo wee
And if you don't want to be down with me
You don't want to pick from my apple tree [x3]
And if you don't want to be down with me
You just don't want to be down
Oh my my my my
Oh my my my my
Oh my my my my my my my
I picks my friends like I pick my fruit
My 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 pleasin me
Cos I can't please you, and thats why I do what I do
My soul flies free like a willow tree
Doo wee doo wee doo wee
And if you don't want to be down with me
You don't want to pick from my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
Dum dum diddy
And if you don't want to be down with me
You don't want to pick from my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
You just don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down
I have some food in my bag for you
Not the edible food, the food you eat, no
Perhaps some food for thought
Since knowledge is infinite
It has infinitely fell on me, so um...
You know the kind where the lightnin strike
And I was hangin out with some my yatzhee friends
Ooh wee ooh wee ooh wee

And if you don't want to be down with me
You just don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down

i think it's not yazttzee frinds..i think it's ''artsy'' friends.. it's abput not following anyone else being true to ypur ideas. she's saying that if you don't get my ideas of life and art you simply don't get anything (And if you don't want to be down with me You just don't want to be down)
oh I love this song.
to me this song pretty much says just be true to yourself. "i work at pleasing me, cause i cant please you"
and i think that it has a connection with a fact that in her high school she was known as MC Apple
