On edit:
Also, it won't be long before somebody chimes in with Peter Tosh's "Legalize It," so I'd like to state upfront that "Bush Doctor" is the superior Tosh weed tune:

[fNord]

6. yha, I did that just a few minutes ago...

It is after all, a staple.

[SteppingRazor]

7. Ah! Sorry, didn't notice, as I didn't click through all the links...

[fNord]

8. you'll get no argument here...

this is one of my favorite reggae songs of all time. not just the point of the song, but the music, the tone and the stylish way he mixed prose.

Somebody's watching you
You can rest assured
Somebody's watching you
Yeah
Everything that you do
Will be accounted for
They're running covert operations
Destabilizing third world nations
Military occupations of the people
They got copters guns and bombers
Converging on the peasant farmers
It's a blatant rule of terror
On the people
It looks just like a war
It is a war
War on the people I say
It is a war
War
War on the people I say
They're using economic violence
You know they own the silence
They feed the youth to the lions
In their own country
And they are flying helicopters
Trying to capture the herb doctor
While they bring the white poison into the streets
It is a war
War
War on the people I say
War
War
War on the people I say
Somebody's watching you
You can rest assured
Somebody's watching you
Yeah
Everything that you do
Will be accounted for
In this war
War
War on the people I say
It is a war
War
War on the people I say.

35. One toke over the line-Brewer and Shipley

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-BifD_67dic

One toke over the line sweet Jesus
One toke over the line
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line

Awaitin' for the train that goes home, sweet Mary
Hopin' that the train is on time
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line

Whoooo do you love, I hope it's me
I've bin a changin', as you can plainly see
I felt the joy and I learned about the pain
that my momma said
If I should choose to make a part of me,
surely strike me dead
Now I'm one toke over the line sweet Jesus
One toke over the line
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line
I'm waitin' for the train that goes home sweet Mary
Hopin' that the train is on time
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line

I bin away a country mile,
Now I'm returnin' showin' off a smile
I met all the girls and loved myself a few
Ended by surprise like everything else I've been through
It opened up my eyes and now I'm
One toke over the line sweet Jesus
One toke over the line
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
Don't you just know I waitin'
for the train that goes home sweet Mary
Hopin' that the train is on time
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line

Don't you just know I waitin'
for the train that goes home sweet Mary
Hopin' that the train is on time
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line

I want to be
One toke over the line sweet Jesus
One toke over the line
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line
Don't you just know I waitin'
for the train that goes home sweet Mary
Hopin' that the train is on time
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over the line
Sittin' downtown in a railway station
One toke over line
One toke, one toke over the line

40. That's

one of my favorites as well!

Here's the lyrics of John Prine's "Illegal Smile"

When I woke up this morning, things were lookin' bad
Seem like total silence was the only friend I had
Bowl of oatmeal tried to stare me down... and won
And it was twelve o'clock before I realized
That I was havin' .. no fun

Chorus:
But fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun

Last time I checked my bankroll,
It was gettin' thin
Sometimes it seems like the bottom
Is the only place I've been
I Chased a rainbow down a one-way street... dead end
And all my friends turned out to be insurance salesmen

Repeat Chorus:

Well, I sat down in my closet with all my overalls
Tryin' to get away
From all the ears inside my walls
I dreamed the police heard
Everything I thought... what then?
Well I went to court
And the judge's name was Hoffman

Ah but fortunately I have the key to escape reality
And you may see me tonight with an illegal smile
It don't cost very much, but it lasts a long while
Won't you please tell the man I didn't kill anyone
No I'm just tryin' to have me some fun
Well done, hot dog bun, my sister's a nun
