From the recording Tell Me a Story
Lyrics
Sittin’ on the back porch, on a day so fine
Listenin’ to the birdies, and drinkin’ cheap red wine
They say God is in his heaven,
I know I’m sure in mine
Just look at all those berries getting juicy on the vine.
CHORUS:
Easy pickin’ fruit, gimme that easy pickin’ fruit
Just put that peach within my reach
Down on those lower branches.
Easy pickin’ fruit, I love that easy pickin’ fruit
If I have to climb to make it mine
It’s not worth takin’ chances.
Sittin’ on the back porch, thinkin’ of last night
Somethin’ ‘bout your kisses works up my appetite
Keep it sweet and easy
Babe you’re just my type
I know you’ll make me happy when the time is ripe.
CHORUS:
Easy pickin’ fruit, I’m talkin’ ea-sy pickin’ fruit
Just put that peach within my reach
Down on those lower branches.
Easy pickin’ fruit, I love that easy pickin’ fruit
If I have to climb to make it mine
It’s not worth takin’ chances.
CHORUS:
Easy pickin’ fruit, easy pickin’ fruit
Just put that peach within my reach
Down on those lower branches.
Easy pickin’ fruit, I love that easy pickin’ fruit
If I have to climb to make it mine
It’s not worth takin’ chances.
If I have to climb to make it mine…
(talk) Ooooohh…..maybe I’ll take a little chance!
