byBilly Gibbons
recording of 1970

ZZ Top’s First Album (Warner brothers 2-3268)
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 you’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
