I fucked this girl in Talahassee
Doggie style so i named her Lassie
Came on her, florida state clothes
Filled up all her semen holes
Fucked this girl from purdue
Came in her hair, fucked up her doo
She was cryin, like tammy faye baker
Her pussy got hotter than a boiler maker
Met Santa's daughter in Baton Rouge
Fucked up Christmas like Mr. Scrooge
Dropped her off at LSU
Smoked all her weed, drank all her brew
Fucked George Bush daughter in Dallas, Texas
Rode that ass just like a Lexus
Fucked her again in ft. worth
Stuck my dick in her pussy and I started to surf

(CHORUS)
Colt 45, Afroman
Tryin to get all the pussy that I can
To the cross country in my Afro van
SMOKIN WEED

2X

I priced this hooker in Ohio
I said, Bitch, you too high Ho
I got a cheaper ho in Cincinatti
Fucked her in the back of my 83 Caddy
Broker as hell smokin Newport singles
Came in her ass and said "Fuck the Bengals"

(afroman rant)

SMOKIN WEED!

Smokin weed, State-to-State
Beer and munchies got me gaining weight
Missionary style in chilla coffee
Little mamma said, "would you please get off me"
Beatutiful girl, Iowa City
Roll a blunt fatter than a big fat titty
She sucked my dick, while she held my thighs
I came in her Iowa Hawk-"Eyes"
My dick went BOING in Des Moines
Going going go-Buckaw!

SMOKIN WEED!

(CHORUS 2x)
Oklahoma, Smoke-lahoma
Buffalo, Puff-alo
Fort Smith, Fort Spliff
Smokin weed
Starkville, Sparks-ville
Huntsville, Blunts-ville
Mississippi, Missi-hippie
Alabama, Ala-grama
Hattysburg, Hattys-herb
Burmingham, Burning-ham
Smokin weed
North Dakota, North De Quota
South Dakota, South De Quota
I ran out of rhymes, but i'm...
SMOKIN WEED

(CHORUS 2x)

Afroman

Joseph ‘Afroman’ Foreman began writing songs and handing them out to his friends on cassette while in the eighth grade. At 25 years old, he released his first album, 1999’s Sell Your Dope. Soon after, he moved from LA to Mississippi with the mission to ‘get away from competition and sell to actual people’, releasing his sophomore album Because I Got High in 2000 on T-Bones Records. Its title track, written hastily after a friend showed up and interrupted him on an ambitious day and insisted they instead get high, was the last song he had recorded for the album. Soon after, Afroman left the music business.

At the same time, the file-sharing software Napster – heavily used at the time to share and distribute music for free – was at its peak of popularity, and the album’s title track became popular with its users. Universal Records caught wind and signed Afroman to a six album deal and released it as a single on July 6, 2001.

“Because I Got High” immediately became one of the most-requested songs across the nation, growing even larger after syndicated morning radio show host Howard Stern began airing it regularly, helping to make it ‘the most requested song on the radio in the country’. Further boosting its popularity was its inclusion in the film (and soundtrack to) Jay And Silent Bob Strike Back and MTV’s eventual agreement to air a modified, less-controversial music video for the song. It peaked at #13 in the US, and topped the charts in ten countries overseas. Its album The Good Times reached #10 in the US.
