Evil Weed Lyrics

I was fishing from a bayou in Monroe, Louisiana

And I hadn't had a nibble or take

So I pulled the hook out of the water

And found a note replacing the bait

It read sorry Charlie but us fish ain't biting

We haven't got the time or the time or the need

When I took a closer look into the water

I saw that they were smoking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

So I got out of Monroe just as fast as I could travel

To forget that weird scene I had seen

And while hitching down the highway I was picked up by a woman

Who turned out to be an old girlfriend

I remembered she was straight so I kept things cool

Till she told me that she had been freed

Then she reached in the ashtray and pulled out a reefer

So now she is smoking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Do you ever wonder about the politicians

Who come up with all these crazy rules?

Election time is the only time they seem to

Regard the people as more than fools!

Anymore it seems the people who run this country

Are caught up with their desires and greed

If they're gonna break the law they might as well break down

And smoke a reefer of that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!

Everybody is smoking and toking that evil weed!
