Lyrics Sammy Davis, Jr.

Sammy Davis, Jr.

The People Tree

Hey, wouldn't it be nice

To make a people tree

The likes of you

The likes of me

We can do it very easily

We barely even have to try

Let a little time go by

And pretty soon before we know it

(Soon before we know it)

Suddenly, the two of us

Are one, two, three

And there we see our people tree

As other little branches grow

(Other little branches grow)

That's the way it's meant to go

And there's no way I know to slow it

(There's no way to slow it)

(What a source of mutual satisfaction

When we see the tree bear fruit)

Evidence beyond dispute

Of all our mutual attraction

(Mutual attraction)

Nothing is as lovely as a people tree

I think that we (I think that we)

Would all agree (would all agree)

Of all the miracles that God created

Rated number one would have

To be the people tree

(What a source of mutual satisfaction

When we see the tree bear fruit)

Evidence beyond dispute

Of all this mutual attraction

(Mutual attraction)

Nothing is as lovely as a people tree

I think that we would all agree

Of all the miracles that God created

Rated number one would have

To be the people tree

The people tree (the people tree)

The people tree (the people tree)

The people tree (the people tree)...
