The Lyrics
It’s the rich soil I hew
with hoe of mine.
A better crop will then ensue,
so I’m plyin’’
my hoe, applyin’
it to my plot of land,
a rich and dark brown.
Then some pot I will plant
for a cash crop that I’ll shop around.
So from that soil come doo-
bies that are prime,
so prime!
Soil I hew,
plant a slew
of seeds to
produce doobies that wow.
It’s potent fare,
that’s my greenery
I’ll have some now. . .
a doobie!
Out from the soil it grew,
and it is fine!
with hoe of mine.
A better crop will then ensue,
so I’m plyin’’
my hoe, applyin’
it to my plot of land,
a rich and dark brown.
Then some pot I will plant
for a cash crop that I’ll shop around.
So from that soil come doo-
bies that are prime,
so prime!
Soil I hew,
plant a slew
of seeds to
produce doobies that wow.
It’s potent fare,
that’s my greenery
I’ll have some now. . .
a doobie!
Out from the soil it grew,
and it is fine!
