Yeah, for all we know if could be a depiction of a song that was popular in the local area in which one singer talks about how his rival is so damn short that he needs to beg women to pass him dates from the trees.

Anyone saying they know why this is like it is or what it originally meant to people is making a huge leap, unless they have a tablet written by the artist or someone involved then their guess is always going to be a guess and very likely wrong.
