Song Details[edit | edit source]

"The Fruit Man" is a song that cycles between the keys of G minor and A minor.

"The Fruit Man" was written by Gene Ween, who also sings the lead vocals. The inspiration for the song came from a trip to Jamaica, where he observed fishermen and fruit sellers arguing.[1]

Ween has only played "The Fruit Man" live one single time, in the spring of 2007, six months before the release of La Cucaracha.[2]
