Tree Blues Songtext
von Olu Dara

First time I saw a woman I liked
I was eating wild cherries
At the top of a cherry tree

First time I hugged a woman
I was under a chinaberry tree
Chinaberry tree

First time I kissed a woman
It was close to a persimmon tree
Persimmon tree


First time I loved a woman
It was under a peach tree
Under a peach tree

The first time I got hurt by a woman
Under a magnolia tree
Magnolia tree

If I never looked down from that cherry tree
I would, I would still be free
I would, I would still be free
