I'd like to dedicate this to all the Creator's righteous children

I have some food in my bag for you

Not the edible food the food you eat no

I have some food for thought since knowledge is infinite

It has infinitely fell on me so umm

It was a stormy night you know

The kind where the lightnin' strike

And I was hangin' out with some

Of my artsy friends ooh wee ooh wee ooh

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 pick my friends like I pick my fruit

My Granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' 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 doo wee

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree

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

Then you don't want to pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You just don't wanna be down

I have a hoe and I take it everywhere I go

'Cause I'm plantin' seeds so I reaps what I sow

You know you know on and on and on and on and on

My cypher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone

I can't control the soul flowin' in me ooh wee ooh wee

See I pick my friends like I pick my fruit

My Granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' 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 doo wee

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You just don't wanna be down

Oh my my my

Oh my my my

Oh my my my

My my my

See I pick my friends like I pick my fruit

My Granny told me that when I was only a youth

I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not

I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got

I work at pleasin' 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 doo wee

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

Dum dum diddy

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You don't wanna pick from my appletree

And if you don't wanna be down with me

You just don't wanna be down

(You just don't wanna be down)

You just don't wanna be down

You just don't wanna be down

Down down down

You just don't wanna be down

You just don't wanna be down

Down down down

Down down down

Down down down
