Can't keep my hands off
That dirty little stash box
You say I shouldn't do it
But there's really nothing to it
What's the problem anyhow?
You'd think I was obscene
But there's nothing wrong
With a little green
Why do we have to hide
When we know everyone's doin' it?
Just digging' on what mother nature offers us
Teachers are doin' it
And politicians to
But if you ask our dear old president
He'll say he didn't inhale it
What's the big conspiracy?
What's all the hoopla on the scene?
Someone put the rap
On poor little green
Why do we have to hide
When we know everyone's doin' it?
Just digging' on what mother nature offers us
At least it isn't chemical
It's totally biodegradable
Most of the time it's edible
It's socially indelible
It's a medical matriarch
Serving many different ailments
Wash your body clean
With my friend little green
If you wear it, if you drink it
Or use it to power your machines
Your digging' on what mother nature offers us
So quit acting like it's criminal
When it's totally medicinal
I guess it's gonna take an act of congress
With a damn good lobbyist
To prove that it's innocent
As we already know
Won't you stop stomping'
On little green's toes
Why do we have to hide
When we know everyone's doin' it?
Just digging' on what mother nature offers us
You can use hemp to make speakers
My favorite pair of shoes are hemp sneakers
Drather be a smoker than a tweakier
But please pardon my demeanor
It's really rather simple
If you don't already know
It's environmentally friendly
So let little green grow
Why do we have to hide
When we know everyone doin' it?
Just digging' on what mother nature offers us
