It's been a long, long time I've been smoking, smoking marijuana.
It takes me out of my mental ghetto, and places me in the Bahamas.
It's been a long, long time I've been smoking, smoking marijuana.
It takes me out of my mental ghetto, and places me in the Bahamas.
It puts my mind at ease,
Indulging myself in the calm breeze.
And my problems will float away, beyond the palm trees.
But I gotta keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on.
I keep choking and a choking and a choking on.
I keep selling and a selling and inhaling,
My tumbleweed.
I like to go to Palmdale
Sit by the fountain
I light up a fat one gazing at the snow capped mountains
I like to go to Palmdale
Sit by the fountain
Light up a fat one gazing at the snow capped mountains
Baby please don't nag
Go and get me the Zig Zag
And my problems will blow away
Like a plastic bag
But I gotta keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on.
I keep choking and a choking and a choking on.
I keep selling and a selling and inhaling.
My tumbleweed.
I need to get a job
And that's not funny
Cause me be smoking too much ganja
And me running out of money
I've got to lie to the man,
Tell him that I've never been arrested.
I've got to go to the clinic baby
I've got to get drug tested
I got no food for my stomach
Got no gas for my Coupe De Ville
I've got to walk to the supermarket.
For some Golden Seal
Cuz everyday I be smoking and a smoking and a smoking on.
And I be choking and a choking and a choking on.
And I be selling and a selling and inhaling.
My tumbleweed.
I said the black man smoking
If he's a soul bro
I said the Mexican smoking
If he's a cholo
I said the Creole smoking
Down in Mississippi
I said the white man smoking
If he's a hippie
It puts my mind at ease
Indulging myself in the calm breeze
And my problems will float away
Beyond the palm trees
But I've got to keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on.
I keep choking and a choking and a choking on.
I keep selling and a selling and inhaling.
My tumbleweed
It puts my mind at ease
Indulging myself in the calm breeze
And my problems will float away
Beyond the palm trees
But I've got to keep smoking and a smoking and a smoking on.
I keep choking and a choking and a choking on
I keep selling and a selling and inhaling
My tumbleweed
