Smokin' marijuana

It takes out of my mental ghetto and places me in the Bahamas
It's been a long, long time I've been smokin'
Smokin' marijuana
(La da da da da)
It takes out of my mental ghetto and places me in the Bahamas
It puts my mind at ease
Indulgin' myself in the calm breeze
And my problems will float away beyond the palm trees
But I gotta keep smokin' and a smokin' and a smokin' on
I keep chokin' and a chokin' and a chokin' on
I keep sellin' and a sellin' and inhalin'

(Come again now uh) I like to go to Palmdale
Sit by the fountain (sit by the fountain)
