REBELUTION
Green to Black-

Do you feel it now music’s up in ya
Do you feel it loud straight to the ears man
It’s that mean bass singing pleasure to meet ya
The green and black throw it up so we see ya

Do you feel the sound? It’s coming straight through the waves
While the music from the Earth keeps us sane
I’m feeling that herb when the sun hits my face
You create your mind so make your mental space

Much respect to all the people thinking green
Not just the color but the message in between
Here’s a mental weapon that you’ll use frequently
To stop evil people and end their beliefs

Green turned to black, green smoked to black, green burnt to black
Yea that’s what we stand for


Well Mr. tough guy he fights physically
When all the people really need is some peace
It are these moments where we turn to our needs
It never caused no death nor disease

Don’t try to make it seem like we’re some foolish youth
Throwing away our lives, but we’re searching for the truth
Don’t need authority/rules while we go unheard
See there isn’t any crime using herbs

Much respect to all the people thinking green
Not just the color but the message in between
Here’s a mental weapon that you use frequently
To stop evil people and end their beliefs

Doctors smoke it
Nurses smoke it
Judges smoke it

Bird eat it
And they leave it
Fowls eat it
Goats love to play with it

Peter Tosh
Buk-IN-Hamm Palace -

This here music, Reggae music, as far as I can see
This here music, Reggae music, has got a spell on me
This here music, Rasta music, as far as I can see
This here music, Roots music, it's got a hold on me.

It can make you feel so happy,
When the problems get you down,
It has artificial respiration (?),
Keep your heart functioning sound.

Light your spliff
Light your chalice
We gonna smoke it in Buckinham Palace
Lend me your paper
Lend me your fire
Make we chase away all the vampires.

Music and herb is the healing of the nation,
Sent from Jah who we praise,
So take heed and listen,
Be a fan for better days

Light your spliff
Light your chalice
We gonna burn it in Buckinham Palace
Lend me your paper
Lend me some fire
Make we chase away vampire.


If you want to know my father
said you got to know the son
and if try to compare us,
You will see that we are one.

Light up your spliff
Light up your chalice
We gonna smoke it in Buckinham Palace
Lend me your paper
Lend me your fire
We have to chase away Vampires.

This is a true emancipation
Come to set my people free
Don't you let this world get you down
Give a listen to Reggae sound

Come on Light your spliff
Light up your chalice
We gonna smoke it ina Buckingham Palace
Lend me your Rizzla
Lend me fire
Make we chase away vampire
Light up your spliff
Light up your Chalice

We gonna smoke it in the house of Congress

Ben Harper ~ Burn One Down

Let us burn one

then don't come around
cause I'm gonna burn one down
yes I'm gonna burn one down

and if I'm causing no harm
it shouldn't bother you
your choice is who you choose to bo
and if you're causin' no harm
then you're alright with me
if you don't like my fire
then don't come around
cause I'm gonna burn one down
yes I'm gonna burn one down
herb the gift from the earth
and what's from the earth
is of the greatest worth
so before you knock it try it first

and not a curse
if you don't like my fire
then don't come around
cause I'm gonna burn one down
yes I'm gonna burn one down

NRBQ - Wacky Tobacky

Wacky tobacky
It made me feel so good
Wacky tobacky
Just like you said it would

Everybody doin' it
Smokin' and a-chewin' it
They shippin' and buzzin' it
And Congress is discussin' it

Oh, listen to me
'Cause I wouldn't tell you no lie

Some folks are tryin' it
But then they're denyin' it
A scientist is testin'
But you might get arrested

Jiminy Cricket

But now, wacky tobacky
Wacky tobacky

Oh, wacky tobacky
It made me feel so weird
Wacky tobacky
I had to shave my beard

Yeah, the old they're tryin' it
And then they're denyin' it
It's wicked and it's graded
But then it's confiscated

It's crackers to slip a rozzer
Oh, the dropsy in snide

Hey boy, wacky tobacky
Wacky tobacky

Wacky tobacky
Wacky tobacky

Michael Franti & Spearhead - Ganja Babe


I wanna make it slow
Sensemille
I wanna make it slow
Make me feel ya

Heavy medicine
ya see my eyes are feeling red again
I'm bringin' light
like Thomas funky Edison
been in the desert for forty seven days
Purple Haze
the poison that I tasted never changed
turn up the woofers so I can feel the beat
vibrate my belly like a bomb in harmony
summer heat
my back is sticking to me to the seat
bare feet
tank top and shorts is all ya need
summer breeze
I'm feelin' kinda fine
I'm rollin with my shorty all the time
wind and grind lovely shake your behind
cinnamon skin be bringing sin to my mind
but whether or not the weather's hot
or the weather's cold
I'm wrapping her like a blanket with my whole soul
so that she can feel me
like Coca Cola I'm the woo-o-oh oh the sweet thing
my girl lollipop she growing mad crops
she rollin' herbs everyday
at about 4 o' clock
tick tock
strike the hammer while the Iron's hot
ooh girl watcha got cooking in the pot
see Mary Mary quite contrary
how does your garden grow?
Hydrophonic ultra supersonic
or does it grow naturally slow?

(Chorus)
Ganja babe my sweet ganja babe
I love tha way ya love me and the way ya misbehavin'
ganja babe my sweet ganja babe
come wake body-ody take my mind away

Everybody get down and do the boogaloo
just like the cover of I want you
yoo hooo look watcha gonna do
watcha gonna do when the rent comes due
round up the posse and call up the crew
5 bucks at the door and ya bring ya own booze
call ya neighbor 'cause they can come too
be sure and bring ya records 'cause I only got a few
so baa baa black sheep have you any wool
yes sir, yes sir a nickle bagful
one for my partner one for my crew
some for my ganja baby she needs 2
cuz just like me they want to be... cool

(Chorus)

Black Sabbath - Sweet Leaf

Alright now!!
Wont you listen?

When I first met you, didn't realize
I cant forget you, for your suprize
You introduced me, to my mind
And left me wanting, you and your kind

I love you, oh you know it

My life was empty forever on a down
Until you took me, showed me around
My life is free now, my life is clear
I love you sweet leaf, though you cant hear

Come on now, try it out

Straight people don't know, what your about
They put you down and shut you out
You gave to me a new belief
And soon the world will love you sweet leaf

Thanks Retardo! Sick additions!


KJ! That's one of my favorites! Right on!




Pato Banton
Do not sniff Coke (Only smoke Sensimilla)

Now this one is dedicated to the people all over
remember the words of your crucial entertainer
when I say I do not sniff the coke I only smoke the sensimilla.

I do not sniff the coke I only smoke. Sensimilla!

Without a doubt I am the boss, in my class I am the teacher
if music is the fruit of life then I will be a reaper.
If M. C. business was a school then I would be head master
if a car I'd be the driver, if a bike I'd be the rider.
If M. C. business was a church Pato would be the vicar
then instead of calling me M. C. you all would call me preacher.
But fun and joke aside I want to get serious in this matter
and dedicate this style to each and every cocaine dealer.

In February 1985 Pato became a winner
because I did that tune called Hello Tosh gotta Toshiba!
It shooted up the charts and nearly gave my mom heart failure
she looked at me and said:

"Son me glad me grow you proper
a son like you would be the pride and joy of any mother
no make the fame get to your head just think about your future."

Those words of encouragement just made me push on further
to break down any walls and also break through any barrier.
I got a lot of guidance from G. T. who is my manager
assistance from Don Christie Fashion helped me cross the border.
I also got a lot of aid from good good sensimilla
that's why I do not snort the coke I only burn the Ganja!

One day I had to catch a train from Birmingham to London
half way on my journey was approached by this white roughian
with greasy hair and scruffy jeans he looked just like a villain
he sat down opposite me with a Tennants (Lager) in his right hand
but I don't judge appearance I just check the way you galong
so I introduced myself to him as Mr. Pato Banton.

"Nice to meet ya, my name's Roadie and I work with P. A. Hire
I've heard your name some place before but I just can't remember.
But anyway I'm very very very glad to meet ya
and I've got some dope it's first class coke you can have this for a fiver."

I looked down on the table and saw a piece of silver paper
inside this silver paper was some powder looked like flour.
Me asked: what it do for you? it give you strength and power?
now everyone I want you to hear the way that roadie answered:

"Well Mr. Pato Banton the sensation is fine
it makes me see green men and then I go to cloud nine.
All my worries and problems are left miles behind
so no matter where I am I have a brilliant time.
If you don't believe me hold on and I'll fix you a line
just take one sniff of this and you'll be out of your mind."

But I took the coke and threw it right outside the carriage window
before he could say a word I quickly built up a five-sheeter
into my pocket for my sensi and my lighter
I lit it with a flash and then to Roadie passed it over.
I could see that he was loving it because of his expression
me tell him: this is sensi the healing of the nation
in some places doctors use it for herbal medication.
Ronald Reagan smoke it just before him go pon television
after Margaret Thatcher visit him she bring some back to England
then distributes it equally throughout the house commons.
But fun and joke aside it gives me deep deep meditation
it fills my heart with niceness and I get nuff inspiration.
You could be any colour any creed or any nation
after smoking sensimilla I know you'll find the reason
why I do not sniff coke I only smoke sensimilla!

Too obscure I believe, hard time finding and online link let alone lyrics. I'd have to type them out, and, naw, I'm cool. :D

I listened to it, kinda quirky "Marijuana man" I believe, kinda like Hillbilly Reggae. LOL Thanks anyway..

O.K., this one must be adapted as its about alcohol, but it is right in time.
My lady always sings it at me when it comes on.

Moonshiner ~ Jolie Holland

Moonshiner, moonshiner
Pass it here one more time
Moonshiner, moonshiner
Pass it here one more time
You've got that good, hard stuff that always gets me high

You can break that ground and plant that field
Hole up in the backyard and work that still
You know we're gonna miss you around here
You've got that good, hard stuff,that always gets me high

Moonshiner, moonshiner
Why don't you come back home?
Now I got to drink this store-bought stuff and go to bed all alone
Moonshiner, moonshiner
Why don't you come back home to me?
By the time you get back, there's no telling where I'll be

I loved you in summertime, when we kissed goodbye
I loved you in the fall and I missed you all the time
I loved you in the winter, when you were far away
And the springtime almost killed me
With hot blood in my viens


Black Uhuru ~ Guess Who's Coming to Dinner


Guess who's coming to dinner, Natty Dreadlocks
Guess who's coming to dinner, Natty Dreadlocks

Herbs An' Spices ~ Ziggy Marley

Everywhere we go there will be a change
Everywhere we go there will be a change
Everywhere we go there will be a
change
Everywhere we go yo

Herbs an' spices, spices an' herbs
Don't tell me I can't do this and that
I know the world can be much wickeder
You keep asking me, I keep on answering you saying

The iderine knows, hey the sistren knows
Why do we think like this
Cause revolution just a flow
Chuc revolution just a flow, and everyone know

Herbs an' spices, brother man, spices an' herbs
Hey a say the whole world know
Woe, revolution hot a flow
A revolution hot a flow

Long time how a dem a hold wi down
Come come come come back my people
Hey we haffi stand a ground

Everywhere we go there will be a change
That is why I know there will be a change
And everywhere we go there will be a change
Yes, everywhere we go there will be a change

Some might not agree with this philosophy
Some people might not understand
Tired of being the foot stool of another man
Time to take a stand

Herbs an' spices, spices an' herbs
Hey a sey the whole world realized I
Revolution just a flow
Revolution just a flow
A revolution hot a flow
A revolution just a flow

Rules is all I hear about
Everywhere I go they telling me
I was born to break them down
That's what I know

They tell me I must not do this and that
Hey, I know the world can be much wickeder
Them ask me, me tell them, me tell them
Them ask me, what I say, is what I say

A revolution hot a flow
Revolution just a flow
Revolution hot a flow
A revolution just flow

Everywhere we go there will be a change
Everywhere we go there will be a change
I mean everywhere we go there will be a change
Everywhere we go there will be a change

And everywhere we go there will be a change
Cause everywhere we go
Everywhere we go I see spices an' herbs

Herbs an' spices, spices an' herbs
Mmmh herb, herb, spices an' herbs
I am on my feel dancing to the beat, yea

Revolution, revolution just a flow
Revolution, revolution hot a flow
Revolution just a flow
A revolution hot a flow

Herbs an' herb an', herb an' spices an' herbs
Give it to me, give it to me, give it to me, give it to me
Spices an' herb, whoe, revolution
Yes man a revolution
Yes mi say this a revolution

last, here is one that I find to be a personal anthem. It is extremely difficult to live through the duality of what gov't says and to live right and not doubt your own beliefs.

Declare Independence ~ Bjork

Here's a classic, "Old and In the Way" did this one as well as "New Riders of the Purple Sage"
Panama Red

panama red, panama red
he'll steal your woman
then he'll rob your head
on his white horse mescalito
he comes breezin through town
Bet your woman's up in bed with ol'
panama red.

Judge don't know when reds in town
he keeps well hidden underground,
while everybody's acting lazy
falling out and hanging round.
my woman said 'hey pedro
you're acting crazy like a clown'.
nobody feels like workin
panama red is back in town.

panama red, panama red
he'll steal your woman
then he'll rob your head
on his white horse mescalito
he comes breezin through town
Bet your woman's up in bed with ol'
panama red.

everybody's looking out for him
cause they know red satisfies.
little girls love to listen to him sing and tell sweet lies.
when those things are more confusing honey
you're better off in bed,
and I'll be searching all the joints in town for
panama red.

(chorus)

fairly accurate lyrics :)

"great songs that speak specifically about legalization and hardships involved in growing and MJ"

Sorry you found it quirky man, speaks to a lot of us that actually lived through it, and kinda sounded like what you were looking for. Hillbilly Reggae - yep, not exactly top 40, lol. .

Police State-


Well it feels like we're living in a police state. You broke the law, so accept your fate. They'll pull your car over and they'll beat you too, oh, they want you to know they've got their eye on you

I can't believe I've seen the day, when all our rights would be taken away. Well I have my life, and I've got a child to rear, but I can't grow, when I'm living in a world of fear

Cuz it feels like we're living in a police state, you broke the law so accept your fate. No search warrent is required to invade your privacy, oh, they violate constitutionality

chorus

And I can't believe that the healing of the nation, could ever cause such a big sensation, would you have guessed that a little kali weed, could ever bring all these vultures here to feed?

chorus

They got their eye on you, they got their eye on you.

Shockwave-

Well I slept through the night without a worry or a care, I woke up this morning when the rooster I hear, I jump out of bed and I look up in the air, was then I saw the CAMP helicopters apear, now deep in my heart I feel a shockwave of fear, because I know the herb police are very very near, so I jump in my truck, and fling it into gear, you I really want to get the hell out of here.

Whoa lord, they're coming for my herb, I grow the herb superb.
Whoa lord it's worrying my mind, to think what they will find.

Well the first thing I knew, I reach briceland town, I hear my brother say - hey man, what's going down, I said the fascist police have landed on the ground, I awoke this morning to the helicopter sound, the police come equipped with an M16, biggest operation of it's kind that the country's ever seen, biggest domestic military movement since the civil war, but can anybody tell me what they're fighting us for.

Whoa lord, they're coming for my herb, I grow the herb superb.

Whoa lord, it's worrying my mind, to think what they will find.

Well the next thing I knew, I head on back home, I pray to Jah almighty that they left me alone, I park up my truck, and head out through the woods, I'm wondering if the herb pirates made off with my goods. I feel the apprehension as I move through the bush, I'm growing sinsemilla from the land called Kush. I'm thinking bout my family and the year ahead, I know without money man time is well, dread

Whoa lord, they came and stole my herb, the earth they did disturb

Whoa lord, they flew in with their guns, and put me on the run

Midnight
One more night without sleepin'
Uuh, Watchin'
Till that mornin' comes creepin'
Green door
What's that secret you're keepin'?

There's an old piano and they play it hot
Behind the Green Door. (Green Door)
Don't know what they're doin' but they laugh a lot
Behind the gren door! (Green Door)
Wish they'd let me in so I could find out
What's behind the Green Door! (Green Door)

Knocked once
Tried to tell them I'd been there
Door slammed!
Hospitality's thin there
Wonder,
Just what's going on in there.

Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smoky cloud
Behind the green door. (Green Door)
When I said 'Joe sent me' someone laughed out loud
Behind the green door. (Uuh Green Door)
All I want to do is join the happy crowd
Behind the green door! (Green Door)

(Orchestral Break)

Midnight,

Don't know what they're doin' but they laugh a lot

What's behind the Green Door! (Green Door)

Saw an eyeball peepin' through a smoky cloud

[C]THE VERY NEXT DAY WE PICKED A [Am]BUNCH OF THEM WEEDS AND [G]PUT EM IN
THE [C]SUN TO DRY, THEN WE MASHED 'EM UP AND [Am]CLEANED 'EM UP, AND PUT 'EM
IN A CORNCOB [C]PIPE.

[C]SMOKING THEN WILDWOOD [C7]FLOWERS GOT TO BE A HABIT AND [F]WE NEVER SEEN
NO [C]HARM, WE THOUGHT IT WAS KIND OF [Am]HANDY, TAKE A [G]TRIP AND NEVER
LEAVE THE [C]FARM, A BIG OLD PUFF OF THAT WILDWOOD WEED, [Am]NEXT THING YOU
KNOW YOU'RE WANDERIN [G]AROUND BEHIND THE LITTLE [C]ANIMALS

[C]ALL GOOD THINGS GOT TO [Am]COME TO AN END, IT'S THE [G]SAME WITH OUR
WILDWOOD [C]WEEDS, ONE DAY THIS FELLER FROM [Am]WASHINGTON CAME BY AND
[G]SPIED EM, AND TURNED WHITE AS A [C]SHEET.

[C]WELL THEY DUG AND BURNED AND THEY [C7]BURNED AND DUG AND THEY KILLED ALL
OF [F]OUR CUTE LITTLE [C]WEEDS, THEN THEY DROVE AWAY, [Am]WE JUST SMILED AND
WAVED, [G]SITTIN THERE ON THAT SACK OF [C]SEEDS.

[G]Y'ALL COME HACK NOW YA [C]HEAR!

"Down to Seeds and Stems Again"

I'm sittin alone, Saturday night, watching the Late Late Show.
A bottle of wine, some cigarettes, I got no place to go.
Well, I saw your other man today; he was wearing my brand new shoes,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

Well, I met my old friend Bob today from up in Bowling Green;
He had the prettiest little gal that I'd ever seen.
But I couldn't hide my tears at all, cause she looked just like you,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

Now everybody tells me there's other ways to get high.
They don't seem to understand I'm too far gone to try.
Now these lonely memories, they're all I can't lose,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

Well my dog died just yesterday and left me all alone.
The finance company dropped by today and repossessed my home.
That's just a drop in the bucket compared to losing you,
And I'm down to seeds and stems again, too.

Got the Down to Seeds an Stems again Blues.

"Intro To Ganja Smuggling"

If you like reggae you should get this album. Straight out of Jamaica

Early, early sunday morning it was a big ganja smuggling
Ina de mud me a pick kali bud an me a load dem down in off the top (?)
One by one, load up de van, all of-a ganja it ram
Put it on a plane, the weed gaan a Spain
Money jus' a pour like rain
Me jus' a mogel up the lane in a rolled gold chain
Me an me girl name Jane

Dung dere in the ghetto I go, where sufferation I once know, ey
Mummy an daddy, all a' we so poor, we all had to sleep on the floor
Storm it come and it blow dung me door, me ha fi nail up me window
Me shoes tear up, me toe just a show, me nuh know a where fi really wan' go
Mummy jus' a bawl 'poor, poor, poor', me cry, she seh 'son cry no more'
