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 untilthe 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
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 want to be down with me
Then you don't want topick from my
Apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
Then you don't want topick from my
Apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
Then you don't want topick from my
Apple tree
And if you don't want to be down
You just don't want to bedown

I have a hoe
And I take it everywhere I go
Cause I'm plantin' seeds so I reaps
What I sow, ya know, yaknow
On and on, and on and on my cypher
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
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 want to be down with me
You don't want to pickfrom my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
You don't want to pickfrom my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
You don't want to pickfrom my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
You just don't want tobe 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
Cause 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 pickfrom 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 pickfrom my apple tree
And if you don't want to be down with me
You just don't want tobe down
You just don't want to be down
You just don't want to be down
