Brett Dennen Fig Tree Lyrics

Oh baby won't you come with me I'll tell you where I'm going Over the meadow, down by the stream Under the shade of a fig tree

So won't you come along Won't you come along Well, come with me Underneath the shade The shade of a fig tree

And it won't take long It won't take long 'Till you'll be beside me Shake it mama, shake Shake me up in my tree Well, shake me up in my tree

Oh the sunlight streaks across the meadow Comes speaking through the canopy The shadow suggests the shape of my interests Under your fig leaf

So won't you come along Won't you come along Well, come with me Underneath the shade The shade of a fig tree

And it won't take long It won't take long 'Till you'll be beside me Shake it mama, shake Shake me up in my tree Shake me up in my tree
Mmm Alright

So won't you come a long Won't you come along Well, come with me Underneath the shade The shade of a fig tree

And it won't take long It won't take long 'Till you'll be beside me, baby Shake it mama, shake Shake me up in my tree Yes, shake me up in my tree

Uprooting's heavy on the tree And nature has been good to thee You've been sittin' pretty with your prudence and your paw swingin' I've been barking up the wrong tree

So won't you come along Won't you come along Well, come with me Underneath the shade The shade of a fig tree

And it won't, and it won't And it won't take long 'Till you'll be beside me, baby Shake it mama shake Shake me up in my tree Oh, shake me up in my tree Shake me up in my tree
