Legalize me
Oh I want the legal right to be me
Only me
Legalize me
Bail me, jail me
But they're never gonna nail me
Pharmaceutically

I was sleeping like a baby in bed
When I woke up
To a voice in my head
"We're all outta rooms
Try down the road is what I said"
I'm just a farmer
And I grow marijuana

Oh baby doll
Can yo tell that I like that?
Oh baby doll
We're gonna rattle your combinations
Up and down

Legalize me
Oh I gotta gotta gotta feel free
Really free
Legalize me
Wake me, shake me
If they're gonna come and take me
Make it legally

I been campaigning for
The rights of the meek
I've been holed up
In a tree most the week
Hey, sir, your crush boxes
Are starting to leak
They're saying "never"
But we'll wait here 
Forever and ever and ever and ever

Oh baby doll
Can yo tell that I like that?
Oh baby doll
We're gonna rattle your combinations
Up and down

And if I want to shake my hair
In the sun
Don't try to flail me
For offending anyone
I don't take Prozac
And I'll never own a gun
I'm just a farmer
But, I swear I'd never harm her

Oh baby doll
Can yo tell that I like that?
Oh baby doll
We're gonna rattle your combinations
Up and down
