[Chorus]
I got a reefer headed woman
She fell right down from the sky
(Good Lord)
Woah, I got a reefer headed a woman
She fell right down from the sky

[Verse 1]
Well, I gots to drink me a two-fifths of whiskey
Just to get half as high

[Verse 2]
When the good Lord made that woman
He sure went to town
Ooh, when the good Lord made that woman
He sure went to town
Well, when he was feeling high
Ooh, he sure should have been feeling low

[Harmonica Solo]

[Interlude]
Oh Mr. Perry!

[Guitar Solo]

[Chorus]
I got a reefer headed woman
She fell right down from the sky
(Good Lord)
Woah, I got a reefer headed a woman
She fell right down from the sky

[Harmonica Solo]

[Outro]
Lord, I gots to drink me two-fifths of whiskey
Just to get, just to get, half as high

Aerosmith

Aerosmith is an American rock band, sometimes referred to as “The Bad Boys from Boston” and “America’s Greatest Rock and Roll Band.” Formed in 1970, its founding members are Steven Tyler (vocals, keyboards, harmonica), Tom Hamilton (bass), Joey Kramer (drums), Joe Perry (guitar, vocals) and Brad Whitford (guitar).

The band released their eponymous debut studio album in 1973 featuring the single “Dream On,” which remains one of their most popular songs. Their next four albums made them rock stars across the US and Canada, spawning the hits “Sweet Emotion”, “Last Child”, “Walk This Way”, “Back In The Saddle”, “Draw The Line”, and a cover of “Come Together” for the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band Soundtrack.

Before the release of their fifth album Draw The Line, the band’s substance abuse began to destroy them. Perry quit after a backstage fight with Tyler in 1979, and Whitfield left two years later. Despite moderate sales, the band’s fifth and sixth albums were considered flops when compared to the band’s past accomplishments. When Perry and Whitfield returned in 1984, their eighth album Done With Mirrors was also deemed unsuccessful despite strong reviews. Doug Herzog (MTV, VH1)
