Along the same train of thought, does anyone remember a ballad about a patrol in vietnam sitting on some weed, discovering it was grass
I have a very murky memory of something like that. Was it one of those talking blues type songs? If so, it might have been Jaime Brockett. He did a number called "Talkin Green Beret Super Yellow Hydraulic Banana Teeny Bopper Blues", but I'm pretty sure that wasn't it (great title, though).

That evil, mean and nasty line sure rings a bell - I can almost hear it and it kind of sounds like Steppenwolf in my mind, but I wouldn't bet on it. All these songs would make a fun compilation CD (if it hasn't been done yet). One more, though a bit more peripheral

Smoking marihuana is more fun than drinking beer,
But a friend of ours was captured and they gave him thirty years
Maybe we should raise our voices, ask somebody why
But demonstrations are a drag, besides we're much too high
And I'm sure it wouldn't interest anybody
