Billy Yates - Smokin' Grass lyrics

rate me

Well my cousin Joe had a five string banjo

And me I had this ole flat top guitar

We stayed up all night just a pickin' and a grinnin'

We liked our music fast and hot

We played smokin' grass any place they'd let us

Smokin' grass out behind the barn

Smokin' grass is our worst habit

Yeah we got high on smokin' grass

When mama said, boys it's time to do your homework

Said, mom you've got that exactly right

We played all night just to get the sound perfected

Old Lester and Earl would be proud of us tonight

We played smokin' grass any place they'd let us

Smokin' grass out behind the barn

Smokin' grass is our worst habit

Yeah we got high on smokin' grass

One day we got a call said boys you've made the bigtime

They want you to play on that Opry stage

We stood there and played and the crowd went crazy

Our homegrown grass had become the rage

We played smokin' grass down at the Grand Ole Opry

Smokin' grass up at Carnegie Hall

Smokin' grass was our worst habit

Now the whole world gets high on smokin' grass

We played smokin' grass any place they'd let us

Smokin' grass out behind the barn

Smokin' grass is our worst habit

Now the whole world gets high on smokin' grass

Yeah we get high on smokin' grass
