1. (SOMEBODY ELSE BEEN) SHAKIN'YOUR TREE



Well, I'm tryin', yes I'm tryin just to get a line on you
Where you been?
But I'm havin' trouble puttin' a find on you
I'm wearin' thin
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to saving all that stuff for me.

You been hidin', yes your're hidin', you been stayin' out On me.
Sneakin' 'round.
Me and you ain't workin' out just like we oughta be.
You've got me down.
Somebody else been shaking your tree.
Supposed to be saving all that stuff for me.

I'm tired of foolin' around with you, and sittin' here Alone.
It's on my mind.
I think it's time for me to find a new tree of my own.
It's plantin' time.
Anything you wanna do is cool with me.
I don't care who shakes your tree.




2. NEIGHBOR NEIGHBOR


Neighbor, neighbor, why you messin' in my life?
Neighbor, neighbor, you've been talkin' to my wife,
Tellin' her you seen me

Runnin' wild the other night,
Runnin' wild the other night.

A neighbor, neighbor, theres's always one in every crowd.
A neighbor, neighbor, tellin' lies and talkin' loud.
You better watch your step now.

You might fall off your cloud.
You might fall off your cloud.

Now I was walking down a dusty road
When along came a neighbor of mine.
He saw me walkin' with my head hung down,
He just had to stop and pass the time.
Neighbor, neighbor, floatin' in the salty brine.
Floatin' in the salty brine.
