Throwback Thursday

This post seemed appropriate given a current subject that is under discussion at the Capitol right now.  



Magnolia Blues lyrics

I don't know, if y'all have a dope problem in Atlanter, but I know that, uh in Jackson MS, there has been actually marijuana SOLD on the streets
They out... they out in the street sellin it. The police can not contain ALL the marijuaner that's in Jackson. That's the truth

I was born in Soso MS, ain't that cool
Well the folks at Soso, the Lord knows, they sure can groove
We used to wait for Little Richard on the radio
Waiting for another Fats Domino
Oh, oh...
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
MS Fred used to sing his a-low down blues
We all had a hard time, but we'd find somethin' to do
I played the two-finger boogie just as hard as I could
Little Black Charlie used to dance so cool
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues, ooh...
Uh-huh...

I played the two-finger boogie just as hard as I could
Little Black Charlie used to dance so cool
Oh Lord, you gotta help me through these low-down Magnolia Blues
Down in Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues
Soso MS, sweet Magnolia Blues, ooh...
Uh-uh... Soso blues...

But if you've ever seen somebody high on marijuaner, uh, you can tell, they cuticles are dialated
Now I learned that in the Nar, in the Narcotics Trainin' Prevention in Tupelo MS.
They teach that ever' 6 months, and we went up there, and, to see it
And they had a boy that, that tried that marijuaner pill
And, uh, his eyes rolled back upon his head, and he liked to, he liked to kicked over
He was shakin and uh, hollerin', uh
He was hollerin' that "Trip Out" just as loud as he could
And that's what he, uh, he was actually what they call "Freakin Out"

A poor girl wants to marry, a rich girl wants to flirt
A rich man goes to college, a poor man goes to work
A drunkard wants another drink of wine, and a politician wants your vote
I don't want much of nothing at all, but I will take another toke

"Twigs and Seeds" was at least as equally catchy!

Shanty by Jonathan Edwards is one of if not the best weed song.

Gonna sit down in the kitchen
And fix me something good to eat
And make my head a little high
And make the whole day complete
'Cause we gonna lay around the shanty, mama
And put a good buzz on

Well, pass it to me baby
Pass it to me slow
We'll take time out to smile a little
Before we let it go
'Cause we gonna lay around the shanty, mama
And put a good buzz on

Well, there ain't nothin' to do
And there's always room for more
Fill it, light it, shut up
And close the door
'Cause we gonna lay around the shanty, mama
And put a good buzz on

We gonna sit around the kitchen
Fix us somethin' good to eat
And make ourselves a little high
And make the whole day complete
'Cause we gonna lay around the shanty, mama
And put a good buzz on
'Cause we gonna lay around the shanty, mama
And put a good buzz on

Yeah, more dope. Just what we need.

And they say we are the stupidest state.

Because we are.

Every fake "conservative" rushes to the GubMint to finance his latest GubMint sanctioned scheme, whether it's fake conservative farmers bleating for more welfare, or LiberaLtarian dopers bleating for MM. All the while saying out the other side of the mouth, "Cut GubMint(just not mah check or tax break or scheme)."

Meanwhile, Mississippi goes further downhill every day.

Gunn, Bong Gar, Tater - ALL sellouts and doper friends.

And they talk about LaMumbler and the "dope boys."

Tater and Gunn and Bong Gar ARE the dope boys.

It was Stems and seeds"

My dog died yesterday, let me all alone
The finance company stopped by today, repossessed my home
But thats just a drop in the bucket, compared to losing you
And I'm down to stems and seeds too

I Got Stoned And I Missed It
Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show

I was sitting in my basement I just rolled myself a taste
Of something green and gold and glorious to get me through the day
Then my friend yelled through the transom "Grab your coat and get your hat son
There's a nut down on the corner, givin' dollar bills away"
But I laid around a bit
Then I had another hit
Then I rolled myself a bauma
Then I thought about my mama
Then I fooled around, played around
Jacked around a while and then
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned and it rolled right by
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned and I missed it
I got stoned oh me oh my
Now it took seven months of urging just to get that local virgin
With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit
Next day she woke up rosy and she snuggled up so cosy
When she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and it rolled right by
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned oh me oh my
Now I ain't makin' no excuses for the many things I uses
Just to sweeten my relationships and brighten up my day
But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover
And they ask me how my life has been I guess I'll have to say
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and it rolled right by
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned and I missed it
I was stoned oh me oh my

I think "Little Black Charlie" should be changed to "they."

Jesse Winchester.



Well, when I got home from work last night
I headed straight for my stash
'Cause I wanted some of my private blend
Which is two parts grass to one part hash
Well, when I got to my little secret hiding place
And I checked out my little plastic bag
Well, there wasn't a speck of that nice leaf left
And I felt my whole spirit sag

There's nothing but twigs and seeds
Twigs and seeds
And they sure don't deliver the punch
That this ole head needs

So I phoned up my old connection and I said
"Look, Richard, this is an emergency, man
Look, I have just discovered that I am
Fresh out of that herb that's so dear to me
You know what I mean man?"
He said, Look, Jesse, I'd like to help you, man"
Said, "I'm in business to supply you with the
weed, you know
But the man just busted a whole huge shipment
of mine
And now everyone in town's smokin'
twigs and seeds" (that's right)

There's nothing but twigs and seeds
Twigs and seeds
And they sure don't deliver the punch
That this old head needs

So you have morning glory seeds and nutmeg
And LSD and model airplane glue
And peyote buttons an' Methedrine, Benzedrine,
Hexedrine
Someone said banana peels would do
Let us say the use of these various hallucinogrens
Was somehow no longer a legal misdeed
Well, man, I still think there ought to be some
sort of law
About possession of nothin' but twigs and seeds

There's nothing but twigs and seeds
Twigs and seeds
And they sure don't deliver the punch
That this old head needs

1:44 p.m.: Most people lack the intellectual resources to smoke dope all day and not be stupid fuck-ups. That's just the truth. I'm sorry if it hurts your feelings.

Jim Stafford…
The name of this song is the Wildwood Flower
Now the Wildwood Flower is an old country classic
It's gained a whole new popularity
The song isn't any more popular
But the flower's doin' real good

Or -

Toby Keith…
I'll never smoke weed with Willie again
My party's all over before it begins
You can pour me some Old Whiskey River my friend
But I'll never smoke weed with Willie again

Both are good for a chuckle, but Jim Stafford is a forgotten treasure!

4:57, Remember these Dr. Hook & the Medicine Show lyrics ?

"Pass the roach please, and pour the wine ..."

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
You've been hanging on to it
And I sure would like a hit

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Roll another one
Just like the other one
That one's just about burnt to the end
So come on and be a real friend

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me

Them boys from Oklahoma roll their joints all wrong
They're too damn skinny or way too long
I ain't no holy roller so I just use a bong
Them boys from Oklahoma roll their joints all wrong

Them boys down in Texas got some damn fine weed
They smuggle across the Rio, they use the Mexican breed
That's expointin' cheap labor, but hell that's Texican's creed
Them boys down in Texas got some damn fine weed

Them boys in Arkansas they got some damn fine pot
That's a direct result of all them good seeds they got
Haulin' water up a hill's a chore, but man I tell you what
Them boys from Arkansas they got some damn fine pot

[Chorus]

Them boys up in Kansas, hell all they got is a bunch of schwag
And they'll try to screw you for fifty bucks a quarter bag
I got some in my guitar case and I'm not the type to brag
But it's a damn sight better than that Kansanian schwag

Them boys in Louisiana got trouble growin' their weed
Them alligators is mean, and they eat up all the seeds
But on a bayou night by the light of a full moon
You can walk out and pick you a sack full of 'shrooms

Back in the 70's tokin' Panama Red 'till the Pleiades
Constellation's falling from the sky.
Then came the newest kick
Sinsemilla for the Mexican brick,
Never brings you down, it gets you high.


Roll the green green grass of California
Pacific breeze so gentle and so kind
When your eyes are red, spinning in your head
Remember, it's only in your mind.


In came the strongest stuff,
Single props couldn't haul enough
To keep on Mendocino County time.
Up and down the PCH, from the black sand beach to the redwood gate
They engineered a stronger strain and kind.


Roll the green, green grass of California.
Pacific breeze so gentle and so kind.
When your eyes are red, spinning in your head,
Remember, it's only in your mind


We used to roll up another and another...
Don't bogart brother, you're not alone.
Now a smaller stash, will cost you twice the cash.
And as much will lift you to a new time zone.


Roll the green, green grass of California.
Pacific breeze so gentle and so kind.
When your eyes are red, spinning in your bed,
Remember, it's only in your mind.
When your eyes are red, so heavy in your head,
Remember, it's only in your mind.
Remember, it's only in your mind.

Trollfest '09

Trollfest '07 was such a success that Jackson Jambalaya will once again host Trollfest '09. Catch this great event which will leave NE Jackson & Fondren in flames. Othor Cain and his band, The Black Power Structure headline the night while Sonjay Poontang returns for an encore performance. Former Frank Melton bodyguard Marcus Wright makes his premier appearance at Trollfest singing "I'm a Sweet Transvestite" from "The Rocky Horror Picture Show." Kamikaze will sing his new hit, “How I sold out to da Man.” Robbie Bell again performs: “Mamas, don't let your babies grow up to be Bells” and “Any friend of Ed Peters is a friend of mine”. After the show, Ms. Bell will autograph copies of her mug shot photos. In a salute to “Dancing with the Stars”, Ms. Bell and Hinds County District Attorney Robert Smith will dance the Wango Tango.

Wrestling returns, except this time it will be a Battle Royal with Othor Cain, Ben Allen, Kim Wade, Haley Fisackerly, Alan Lange, and “Big Cat” Donna Ladd all in the ring at the same time. The Battle Royal will be in a steel cage, no time limit, no referee, and the losers must leave town. Marshand Crisler will be the honorary referee (as it gives him a title without actually having to do anything).


Meet KIM Waaaaaade at the Entergy Tent. For five pesos, Kim will sell you a chance to win a deed to a crack house on Ridgeway Street stuffed in the Howard Industries pinata. Don't worry if the pinata is beaten to shreds, as Mr. Wade has Jose, Emmanuel, and Carlos, all illegal immigrants, available as replacements for the it. Upon leaving the Entergy tent, fig leaves will be available in case Entergy literally takes everything you have as part of its Trollfest ticket price adjustment charge.

Donna Ladd of The Jackson Free Press will give several classes on learning how to write. Smearing, writing without factchecking, and reporting only one side of a story will be covered. A donation to pay their taxes will be accepted and she will be signing copies of their former federal tax liens. Ms. Ladd will give a dramatic reading of her two award-winning essays (They received The Jackson Free Press "Best Of" awards.) "Why everything is always about me" and "Why I cover murders better than anyone else in Jackson".

In the spirit of helping those who are less fortunate, Trollfest '09 adopts a cause for which a portion of the proceeds and donations will be donated: Keeping Frank Melton in his home. The “Keep Frank Melton From Being Homeless” booth will sell chances for five dollars to pin the tail on the jackass. John Reeves has graciously volunteered to be the jackass for this honorable excursion into saving Frank's ass. What's an ass between two friends after all? If Mr. Reeves is unable to um, perform, Speaker Billy McCoy has also volunteered as when the word “jackass” was mentioned he immediately ran as fast as he could to sign up.


In order to help clean up the legal profession, Adam Kilgore of the Mississippi Bar will be giving away free, round-trip plane tickets to the North Pole where they keep their bar complaint forms (which are NOT available online). If you don't want to go to the North Pole, you can enjoy Brant Brantley's (of the Mississippi Commission on Judicial Performance) free guided tours of the quicksand field over by High Street where all complaints against judges disappear. If for some reason you are unable to control yourself, never fear; Judge Houston Patton will operate his jail where no lawyers are needed or allowed as you just sit there for minutes... hours.... months...years until he decides he is tired of you sitting in his jail. Do not think Judge Patton is a bad judge however as he plans to serve free Mad Dog 20/20 to all inmates.

Trollfest '09 is a pet-friendly event as well. Feel free to bring your dog with you and do not worry if your pet gets hungry, as employees of the Jackson Zoo will be on hand to provide some of their animals as food when it gets to be feeding time for your little loved one.

Relax at the Fox News Tent. Since there are only three blonde reporters in Jackson (being blonde is a requirement for working at Fox News), Megan and Kathryn from WAPT and Wendy from WLBT will be on loan to Fox. To gain admittance to the VIP section, bring either your Republican Party ID card or a Rebel Flag. Bringing both and a torn-up Obama yard sign will entitle you to free drinks served by Megan, Wendy, and Kathryn. Get your tickets now. Since this is an event for trolls, no ID is required. Just bring the hate. Bring the family, Trollfest '09 is for EVERYONE!!!

This is definitely a Beaver production.

Dr. Heddy Matthias and Lori Gregory will face off in the undercard dueling with dangling participles and other um, devices. Robbie Bell will perform Her two latest songs: My Best Friends are in the Media and Mama's, Don't Let Your Babies Grow up to be George Bell. Sid Salter of The Clarion-Ledger will host "Pin the Tail on the Trial Lawyer", sponsored by State Farm.

There will be a hugging booth where in exchange for your young son, Frank Melton will give you a loooong hug. Trollfest will have a dunking booth where Muhammed the terrorist will curse you to Allah as you try to hit a target that will drop him into a vat of pig grease.
