The Oak Tree (Album Version)

The Oak Tree - Morris Day

Morris why are you having that tree cut down

Because it symbolizes something of

Great value to me

And I am going to have put it in my living room

Do you mind

Oh what does it symbolize to you Morris

Baby just relax a moment and I will show you

(Not right now)

All in a line from the worst to the best

When it comes to cutting a rug

I will put you to the test

Ain't nobody better

That Is what they are telling me

They say Morris

What is that dance you are doing

Well I am doing the oak tree ha ha

(Oak tree)

I will put you to the test

(Oak tree)

When it comes to dancing I am the best

(Oak tree)

Ready to debut

(Oak tree)

Spread your branches you know what to do

Dancing like a tree

See my branches never rest

It may sound kind of silly girl

But I do it with finesse

You see I never do the bugaloo

Or the chicken that isn't me

But you can bet your bottom dollar girl

I can do the Oak Tree look out

(Oak tree)

I will put you to the test

(Oak tree)

When it comes to dancing I am the best

Let me shake my leaves

Hey you guys look it is Morris dancing his

New dance

Taking care of business girl
