  • Ah yeah
    What's that smell?

    Wanda is a woman, she works down the hall
    Shows up on time, she's like balls to the wall
    She went out to lunch with her high school friends
    'Bout three hours later she came rollin' back in
    Well, the boss man really jumped her
    Son he wasn't joking
    Everybody in the office knew Wanda had been smokin'

    That old wacky tobaccy
    When you feel it creeping up on you
    That old wacky tobaccy
    Kick back and let it do what it do

    Now you can two tote her, you can one hit him
    Puff it in a pipe and you can twist it in a stem
    You can bake it in some brownies, smoke it through a bong
    Roll up a great big fat one like ol' Cheech and Chong
    Burn it through a hole in a can of Budweiser
    If you can't take the heat, son, vaporizer

    That old wacky tobaccy
    When you feel it creeping up on you
    That old wacky tobaccy
    Kick back and let it do what it do
    Now do what you do
    Oh, yeah

    You've got your Mexican and Jamaican with those buds of blue
    Humboldt County and hydroponic too
    Okeechobee purple from down in the south
    And that ol' stuff your uncle smokes'll give you cotton mouth
    Homegrown is healthy, synthetic can kill ya
    My all time favorite is redhead sensimilla

    That old wacky tobaccy
    When you feel it creeping up on you
    That old wacky tobaccy
    Kick back and let it do what it do

    Aw let it do what it do
    Yeah it do
    Y'all got any Fritos? Writer/s: Scotty Emerick, Toby Keith

  • Rachael Stalcup from TexasTexas should lead the way for dispensing medical herb....what are we gaining by waiting? Are we waiting for Abbott to leave office?? He's cool as s--t but I don't believe he would ever go there. If we legalized it (And decriminalized it) we could set back a portion or all the proceeds to cover every Texan's healthcare and higher education. The basic necessities...FREE..........why not?? It becomes a gateway drug when you have to score it from the local cocaine dealer. In comparison to alcohol, pot would be over the counter and booze would be highly illicit substance....if we looked at its impairment ability. It has many helpful benefits. Arthritis...carpel tunnel. CBD oil is a miraculous wonder. I promise.
  • Mrjm from ChicagolandThe first track on NRBQ's 1979 album "Kick Me Hard" was titled "Wacky Tobacky."
