The Apple Doesn'T Fall Far From the Tree

There grew an apple family named red Who all lived on their family spread The dad was a prolific producer Their mom a sweet sexy seducer When they were born their mother left home Left them to grow on their own So they all hung around with their dad Did their best not to sour or go bad Now the old man was a deep rooted guy Not once did he pout or cry He stood up proud and tall Took care not to let them fall Provided a canopy leafy green Health food like chlorophyll ice cream They took dancing lessons from the wind Had beetles and birds for friends He taught them how to deal with the rain Grow thick red skin for sunburn pain Everything he knew about the weather Even warned them about pestilence."Don't ever!" He told them try not to go to seed Be sweet and in life you'll succeed Then one day they each started to leave The apple doesn't fall far from the tree by Daniel Turner
