Neil Diamond - The Pot Smoker's Song lyrics

[Neil Diamond - The Pot Smoker's Song lyrics]

La, la, la

Pot, pot, give us some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
High, high, I wanna get high
You never give it up if you give it a try

La, la, la, la

"I started when I was thirteen
I had saw some people
Smoking pot, and I bought
Myself a nickel bag
And I went behind my building and I set on
A bench all by myself, and I
Smoked that bag, you know, until I finally
Got high i started with pot 'cause
I was curious at that time, i was having
Problems with my family i
Remember on one trip, i was


At a party and I got very sick from speed
From meth and I used to shoot it in my
Spine, and I used to shoot acid in
My spine i had too much i
Was building a big thing up over a
Week, and I just got sick
And I tried to commit suicide"

La, la, la

Pot, pot, give us some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
Do, do take a family cruise
You with your grass
Mom and dad with their booze

La, la, la

"I was so sensitive, you
Know, like my family
There was so much going on in my family
Every little thing bothered me
When I started using
Drugs, I just didn't care
Nothing bothered me, nothing hurt
Me, I didn't feel anything and I didn't
Care if I lived or died, so I didn't care
If I shot dope, or took an OD i
Was so unhappy, like I felt so unworthy
You know? From the time I
Was brung up, I think like, I
Have two older sisters, they're twins
And the three of us used
To compete for my father's love
And I always felt
Like he loved them more than - like, he used
To tell me this, you know like, he used
To say all the time, 'you're not worthy
You're not as
Good-looking as your sisters, you're not
This like your sisters
' you know? 'You're never gonna be anything
No one's ever gonna love you' He was a
Rabbi and there was a lot of pressure"

La, la, la

Pot, pot, gimme some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
Tough, tough, the world is so tough
And when it gets harder, you can try stuff

La, la, la, la

"yeah, I never felt much like
I was much of anything
In my whole life i was
Looking for love somewhere
I wasn't getting it anywhere i was never
Happy, never happy always felt
On the outside actually
As much as I'd like to
Deny the fact that pot was the
Beginning of my uses of drugs
It was the beginning of my using
Of drugs it was the
First thing I touched in the drug field i was
Told it was innocent by
Anybody that surrounded
Me people that I looked
Up to as intellectuals
And smart people and they told me there's
Nothing wrong with pot
You'd never graduate to anything else now
You can walk up the street
Here about a block and see these same people
As intellectual as I thought they were
Using heroin i can't see myself
Ever using it again"

La, la, la, la

Pot, pot, gimme some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
Hip, hip, you wanna be hip
You're no one at all if you don't take a trip

Pot, pot, gimme some pot
Forget what you are
You can be what you're not
Hip, hip, you wanna be hip
You're no one at all if you don't take a trip
