And I was hangin' out with some
You know, you know, on and on, and on and on and on
I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
Down, down, down
Doo wee doo wee doo wee
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Oh my my my
My cypher keeps movin' like a rollin' stone
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Down, down, down
Of my artsy friends, ooh wee ooh wee ooh
And if you don't want to be down with me
Doo wee doo wee doo wee
Oh my my my
Then you don't want to pick from my appletree
Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree
You just don't wanna be down
I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
And if you don't wanna be down with me
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Not the edible food, the food you eat, no
Incense was burnin' so I'm feelin' right, aight
(You just don't wanna be down)
I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
And that's why I do what I do
It was a stormy night, you know
My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
You don't wanna pick from my appletree
My soul flies free like a willow tree
You just don't wanna be down
You just don't wanna be down
You just don't wanna be down
I have some food for thought, since knowledge is infinite
Down, down, down
The kind where the lightnin' strike
Then you don't wanna pick from my appletree
I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
And if you don't wanna be down with me
'Cause I'm plantin' seeds so I reaps what I sow
My soul flies free like a willow tree
You just don't wanna be down
And if you don't wanna be down with me
It has infinitely fell on me, so, umm
You don't wanna pick from my appletree
You just don't wanna be down
You just don't wanna be down
My my my
Doo wee doo wee doo wee
And that's why I do what I do
And if you don't wanna be down with me
My soul flies free like a willow tree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
Down, down, down
People coolin' out until the break of dawn
Dum dum diddy
You don't wanna pick from my appletree
See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
And that's why I do what I do
And if you don't wanna be down with me
See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
Oh my my my
And if you don't wanna be down with me
My Granny told me that when I was only a youth
I don't walk around tryin' to be what I'm not
You don't wanna pick from my appletree
The night was long, the night went on
See, I pick my friends like I pick my fruit
I have a hoe and I take it everywhere I go
I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
You don't wanna pick from my appletree
And if you don't wanna be down with me
I don't waste my time tryin' to get what you got
I work at pleasin' me 'cause I can't please you
I can't control the soul flowin' in me, ooh wee ooh wee
