[Verse]
~#**************#~
Owsley and Charlie, twins of the trade
~#**************#~
Come to the Poets Room
~#**************#~
Talking about the problems of the leaf
~#**************#~
And yes, itll be back soon
~#**************#~
There used to be tons of gold and green
~#**************#~
Coming up here from Mexico
~#**************#~
A donde está la planta, mi amigo, del sol?
~#**************#~
[Pre-Chorus]
~#**************#~
But Mexico is under the thumb
~#**************#~
Of a man we call Richard
~#**************#~
And hes come to call himself king
~#**************#~
But hes a small-headed man
~#**************#~
And he doesnt know a thing
~#**************#~
About how to deal for you
~#**************#~
How to deal for you
~#**************#~
[Chorus]
~#**************#~
There are millions of you now
~#**************#~
I mean its not as if you were alone
~#**************#~
There are brothers everywhere
~#**************#~
Just waiting for a toke on that gold
~#**************#~
And God knows how far it can go
~#**************#~
[Post-Chorus]
~#**************#~
Youre famous, Uncle Charlie
~#**************#~
For your Mexican smoke
~#**************#~
Youre a legend, Owsley
~#**************#~
For your righteous dope
~#**************#~
[Outro]
~#**************#~
There were a half a million people on the lawn
~#**************#~
And we sang to the faces in the dawn
~#**************#~
How long will that damned race
~#**************#~
Wait for the jailers time to end?
~#**************#~
How long will the Panther race
~#**************#~
Wait for the iron bars to bend?
~#**************#~
No, no, no, no, no, nobody wait
