Here's a good one.
I'm also looking for the track "Kids Are Getting High," which is sung to "Rocky Mountain High".
Dreamed about a reefer of five feet long
Not too fat and not too strong
You get high, but not for long
If you'se a viper
Now I'm the king of everything
Got to get high for to sing
Light that tee and we will see
If you'se a viper
... also Sylford Walkers' "Lambs Bread"....
yes I wanna
smoke a spliff
while I'm doin' Madonna.
Anyway, I helped him put together a couple of hemp song mixes. Now, there are a few cornball tunes here and there but, for the most part, these lists are decent. If I had more time, I'd put up audio for all of them ... I'll put up songs by request if anyone is interested.

Yeah, I have a grip of those comps from the 70's
on "Stash Records" filled with weed/drug songs, and
I love them all. People really knew how to sing about
weed back then, haha. I like "Killin' Jive" by the
Cats and the Fiddle.
this is one of my favorite songs about weed ever.
If you got enough money to buy yourself a new pair of jeans.... hehe
"Fresh Air " - Mad Professor
this and "Pack the Pipe" for personal stoner reasons...
Don't forget "Pass the Bone"
Down To Seeds And Stems Again, Too Commander Cody and the Lost Planet Air Men.
Willin' Little Feat
New Riders Of The Purple Sage had a smuggling song on the first record I used to like, can't remember the name. Not Panama Red which I never liked.
Any direct Beatles references? Oh yeah, Day In A Life.
What Motown songs are about weed? Mentioned in Living For The City. Rick James and Marvin Gaye most have something I'm not thinking of.
2. Hopeton Lewis - Cool Collie
Hell yes.
And in the rapp category: "Puffin' On A Cloud" by the Beatnuts. The sloppy EZ-latin loop just adds to the topic of the song.
from "here my dear"
funky space reincarnation: "smoke i got from venus, had it all week, come on babe and try this new thing with me"
and "is that enough?":
why do i have to pay attorney's fees?...attorney fees! this is a joke; i need a smoke, wait a minute.
and of course rick has "mary jane"
