    Depends on what you're looking for. "Let's Go Smoke Some Pot" by Dash Rip Rock is kind of catchy and funny. "Smoke Two Joints" by the Toys is a classic.

    Here's a good one.



    I'm also looking for the track "Kids Are Getting High," which is sung to "Rocky Mountain High".

  • I've always been partial to those 1930's herb tunes ... like Fats Waller's "You'se A Viper" ... there are versions galore ...

    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"....

  • Grateful Dead (insert song title)

  • Marijuana
    yes I wanna
    smoke a spliff
    while I'm doin' Madonna.

  • A friend of mine has been a professional smoker for probably 40 years (he's pushing 60). Huge music head as well ... good friends with the Sun Ra Arkestra going back about 25 years, hangs out with the Daptone family on the regular, etc. He's an original Head, to be sure. Never met another like him.

    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.

    Here are the lists anyway:

    5. Monster Hash - The Toyes
    6. The Dope Smokin' Song - Hank Flamingo
    7. Too High For The Supermarket - The Uninvited [definitely corny]
    8. Music's So Much Better When You're High - The Mighty Elves
    9. Stoned Agin - Paraphernalia
    10. I Love Marijuana - Linval Thompson
    11. Aily And Ailaloo - Niney & Max
    12. Herb Vendor - Horsemouth
    13. Don't Smoke The Seed - Frankie Jones
    14. When I Get Low, I Get High - Ella Fitzgerald & the Chuck Webb Orch.
    15. My Jamaican Collie - Max Romeo
    16. Take A Lift - Jacob Miller
    17. Herb Smoking - Peter Tosh
    18. Sensimilea - Barrington Levy
    19. Grassfire - John Trudell
    20. Positive Herb - Niyo Rah
    21. Jay - Eek A Mouse


    Disc two:

    1. Mary Mary - Inner Circle
    2. Up In Smoke - Cheech & Chong
    3. Pakalolo - Israel Kamakawiwo'Ole
    4. Addicted - Amy Winehouse
    5. The Lolo That Stole My Pakalolo - Don Ho
    6. International Farmer - Peter Broggs
    7. Sidemousin' The Bong - Mike Watt
    8. ???Pack A Bowl For Me??? - Lok E. Coyote

    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.

    Am I really the first to say Cheeba Cheeba Harlem Underground?

    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.

  • 1. Prince Buster - Ganja Plant

    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.

    Indonesia - Above The Law

  • Marvin Gaye

    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"

  • I forgot about "Doobie Ashtray". I think it's an amazing song but it's a little introspective and not really on some "let's get high" stuff. Necessarily. 'Til the end.
