ABOUT THIS SONG...
This is a funny one! I was hired by a Booking Agency to perform at a gig at a bar I was not familiar with, but I said "Sure, I'll take the gig". As it turns out, it was at the most Red Neck Bar I have ever been at in my life! I mean right down to the chicken wire. When I was following the directions to the bar, the more the directions lead me towards the Alligator Alley Swamp Land, the more concerned I got. In short, the first weekend I don't think I ever played FREEBIRD so many times in one night, but I survived. However, I did not sell any CD's not a one. Go figure? Then, I knew I needed something for this crowd and wrote and recorded THE REEFER SONG. The second weekend, I played my new song several times in different sets throughout the night. I ended up selling dozens of CD's and NO I DID NOT accept a 3rd and 4th week contract from that agency nor did I ever take any gigs from them since. I'd be happy to hear your comments on this song in the Message Board area of this site. It was a life-saver for me!
Song Lyrics:
THE REEFER SONG
(2006 Jerry Chiappetta, Jr.)
Well it's a part of life the way it starts at a seed, then it grows and it buds into smokeable weed. And I don't really know why I'm writing this song, I think it had to do with those last four bongs.
So Baby, don't pass that doobie by, cause I feel like getting high, tonight, with you. And sorry, but I don't drink and drive, well I prefer to arrive alive, tonight with you.
And it's a tough decision it's a hard fact to take, but I smoke more reefer than the money I make. And when I'm out fishing and they just don't bite, I catch a little buzz and it makes it alright.
So Baby, don't pass that doobie by, cause I feel like getting high, tonight, with you. And lady, it's more than I can take, I smoke more than I make, it's sad, but true.
And some people say that my memories getting rotten, but I can't remember nothing I've forgotten. And some people say that I pass it like a snail, at least I know how to, inhale!
So Baby, don't pass that doobie by, cause I feel like getting high, tonight, with you. And lady, it's more than I can take, I smoke more than I make, it's sad, but true.
Here's a solution to our countries debt, we need to wrap it up and tax it so it's easier to get. And it's a tough decision all these green buds I bake, but I smoke more reefer than the money I make. Yeah, I smoke more reefer than the money I make.
