Legalise Me - The Pretenders, Bob Clearmountain

Legalise me

Oh, I want the legal right to be me

Only me

Legalise me

Bail me, jail me

But they’re never gonna nail me

Pharmaceutically

I was sleeping like a baby in bed

When I woke up to a voice in my head

There’s no room here, try down the road is what I said

I’m just a farmer and I grow marijuana

Oh, baby doll

Could you tell that I liked that

Oh, baby doll

We’re gonna rattle your combinations

Up and down

Legalise me

Oh, I gotta, gotta, gotta feel free

Really free

Legalise me

Wake me, shake me

If they’re gonna come and take me

Make it legally, yeah

I’ve been campaigning for the rights of the meek

Well, I’ve been holed up in a tree most of the week

Hey, sir, your crush boxes are starting to leak

They’re saying never

But we’ll wait here forever

And ever and ever and ever and ever and ever

Oh, baby doll

Could you tell that I liked that

Oh, baby doll

We’re gonna rattle your combinations

Up and down

And if I wanna shake my hair in the sun

Don’t try to flail me for offending anyone

I don’t take prozac and I’ll never own a gun

I’m just a farmer

But, I swear I’d never harm her

Oh, baby doll

Yeah

We’re gonna rattle your combinations, baby
