The Lyrics

I'm really stoned, though its a crime
I like to blow my ever lovin' mind
No drug do I like better than the one with thc
All a-glow, my cheery doob
It just sets me free
Its just right for me

Its high and mellow livin' if you just smoke weed
I've been ripped for years...I can't let it be
Sure, I take a ribbin' cause I smoke that weed
Some make a big fuss
They say its a bust
Could be jail for me
The cops are unforgivin' if you smoke that weed

Guess I should fear, they'll come for me
But when I'm stoned, my worries all just flee
Besides, if you're in prison, you can find it still, you see
And you can make connections
You can use when you're both free
I think you'll all agree

Its high and mellow livin' if you just smoke weed
Its more fun than beer
You don't belch and pee
Liquor, some are sippin', but I just smoke weed
Cause if you're a lush
Your brains become mush
That's a guarantee
Its pure organic livin' if you just smoke weed

And although some may be jeerin'
Cause they don't believe like me
Just like my fellow hippies, I will still smoke weed

Grow it at home

High and mellow if you just smoke weed
High and mellow if you just smoke weed
High and mellow if you just smoke weed
