    Wildwood Weed - Jim Stafford

    The name of this song is 'The Wildwood Flower'
    Now 'The Wildwood Flower' is an old country classic
    It gained a whole new popularity
    The song isn't any more popular
    But the flower is doin' real good

    The wildwood flower grew wild on the farm
    And we never knowed what it was called
    Some said it was a flower and some said it was weed
    I didn't gave it much thought...
    One day I was out there talking to my brother
    Reached down for a weed to chew on
    Things got fuzzy and things got blurry
    And then everything was gone
    I Didn't know what happened
    But I knew it beat the hell out of sniffin' burlap

    I come to and my brother was there
    And he said, 'What's wrong with your eyes?'
    I said, 'I don't know, I was chewing on a weed'
    He said, 'Let me give it a try'
    We spent the rest of that day and most of that night
    Trying to find my brother, Bill
    Caught up with him 'bout six o'clock the next mornin'
    Naked, swinging on the windmill
    He said he flew up there
    I had to fly up and get him down
    He was about half crazy

    The very next day we picked a bunch of them weeds
    And put 'em in the sun to dry
    Then we mashed 'em up and we cleaned 'em all
    And put 'em in the corncob pipe
    Smokin' them wildwood flowers got to be a habit
    We didn't see no harm
    We thought it was kind of handy
    Take a trip and never leave the farm

    A big ol' puff on the wildwood weed
    Next thing you know
    We's just wandering behind the little animals
    All good things gotta come to an end
    And it's the same with the wildwood weed

    One day this feller from Washington come by
    And he spied us and he turned white as a sheet
    And he dug and he burned
    And he burned and he dug
    And he killed all our cute little weeds
    Then he drove away
    We just smiled and waved
    Sittin' there on that sack of seeds

    Y'all come back now, ya hear

    How about these two.....

    Tom Petty & the Heartbreakers
    YOU DON’T KNOW HOW IT FEELS

    Let me run with you tonight
    I’ll take you on a moonlight ride
    There’s someone I used to see
    But she don’t give a damn for me

    But let me get to the point, let’s roll another joint
    And tu rn the radio loud, I’m too alone to be proud
    You don’t know how it feels
    You don’t know how it feels to be me

    People come, people go
    Some grow young, some grow cold
    I woke up in between
    A memory and a dream

    So let’s get to the point, let’s roll another joint
    Let’s head on down the road
    There’s somewhere I gotta go
    And you don’t know how it feels
    You don’t know how it feels to be me

    My old man was born to rock
    He’s still tryin’ to beat the clock
    Think of me what you will
    I got a little space to fill

    So let’s get to the point, let’s roll another joint
    Let’s head on down the road
    There’s somewhere I gotta go
    And you don’t know how it feels
    No, you don’t know how it feels to be me

    And we can't forget Marilyn :eek:

    "C is for Cookie"

    One of the best drug songs of all time, "C is for Cookie" by Cookie Monster.

    "C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    Oh Cookie, Cookie, Cookie starts with C

    A round cookie with one bite out of it looks like a C
    A round doughnut with one bite out if it also looks like a C
    But it is not as good as a cookie
    Oh, and the moon sometimes looks like a C,
    But you can't eat that!

    So, C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    C is for Cookie, that's good enough for me
    Oh, Cookie, Cookie, Cookie starts with C"

    I don't know if it's been posted yet, but "Golden Brown" by the Stranglers is a great drug song.

    Dave Matthews has some pretty catchy drug songs. A lot of his fans don't even realized they're singing along to drug songs either. He has songs in following categories: marijuana, LSD, intravenous drugs.

    The Cranberries have a good "anti-drug" song in "Salvation." Probably the best anti-drug song I've ever heard.

    Dylan's Blonde on Blonde, which has Rainy Day Women #12 & #35 as its first song, is one big drug-induced take on relationships with women (every song is about a woman or multiple women), and about women themselves, including his wife, Sarah.

    Mr. Tambourine Man is about many things (thank God), but there's no question it's about an acid trip.

    And try taking the aforementioned drug and listening to Tambourine Man, and then continue listening to Highway 61 Revisited. Tambourine Man is followed by Gates of Eden and It's Alright Ma, I'm Only Bleeding, two classics, however overwrought, beyond scope. You will have either transformed yourself, or died, but either way you will have gone to Heaven (at least temporarily ;) ).

    PS. Of course you don't need to take LSD to experience this music, or even marijuana. If you've got a pure heart, a searching soul and a diamond-Mind born of the Spirit, you'll be just fine. :)

    Happy happy.

    I think these have been mentioned already, but here are the ones on my list:

    Cocaine Blues - Johnny Cash
    Sex and Drugs and Rock and Roll - Ian Dury and the Blockheads
    White Rabbit - Jefferson Airplane
    Take a Walk on the Wild Side - Lou Reed
    Get Back - The Beatles
    I Wanna Be Sedated - The Ramones
    Don't Bogart that Joint - I thought it was by Command Cody, but I believe that's not true. Apparently it was on the Easy Rider Soundtrack and performed by the Fraternity of Man (?).

    And, they might not have songs, but what about Cheech and Chong?
    "Dave? Dave's not here."

    Fraternity Of Man was Eliott Ingber's band between the time Zappa fired him from the Mothers and his joining of Captain Beefheart. Most of its lineup was swiped from Lowell George and the Factory, including Lowell and Richie Heyward, both of whom, along with Bill Payne appear on some live Mothers recordings of the time... They recorded two albums (after Lowell bowed out to work on Little Feat, though he did some studio work on the second IIRC) and evaporated when Richie moved to the Feat and Ingber joined Beefheart.

    They had one of the rare Zappa covers with "Oh No I Don't Believe It," and there was a pretty good track about politicians called "Platic Rat" which was their claim to fame until "Don't Bogart Me" was elevated to prominence by the movie.

    Little Feat included a scrap of "Don't Bogart Me" on "Waiting For Columbus," at least on the vinyl edition. I'm too lazy right now to get up and confirm whether it made the CD version.

    It did not. For some odd reason they included it on The Last Record Album. (on iTunes anyway)

    Yeah Dee Dee wrote it and I think Richard Hell added a few verses or something like that.

    The Heartbreakers started playing it when Hell was in the band. The original line was:

    "Somebody calles me on the phone, they say hey is Dee Dee home?"

    When The Ramones recorded it they changed the line to:

    "Somebody calles me on the phone, they say hey is Arty home?"
