Papa Tree

Lyrics

[Intro] Oi, oi, oi, oi, I, I, I… I ain't no twig, I ain't no vine There's no flower got roots like mine I ain't no bush, I ain't no sprout I ain't no weed, so there is no doubt… That I'm a Papa Tree I'm a Papa Tree Yes, I'm a Papa Tree With fine greenery I'm a Papa Tree I'm The Papa Tree And I thank y'all for feeding me Now jump up into my mouth Jump up into my mouth Oh, won't you jump up into my mouth? Jump up into my mouth! [Instrumental Break] [Verse 1] Hey, hey, hey, hey… Hey, it's me, the Papa Tree How do you like my canopy? Make your way up off the ground Who knows what can be found? [Instrumental Break] [Verse 2] I, I, I… I cannot thank you quite enough You gave me life, you gave me love But if you give me just a little bit more Then I'll be sure to settle the scorе Yeah, you help me; I hеlp you This is how we're gonna do If you help me then I'll help you This is how we're gonna do [Instrumental Break] [Verse 3] Hey, hey, hey-hey, hey… It's me again; hello, friend I am impressed; I must commend Now it's time to ask a favor But more on that a little later [Instrumental Break] [Verse 4] Well, well, well, well… There's a bird nest in my hair It's not meant to be up there!
