Fight for Your Right to Get High
Lyrics and composition by PJ Wassermann
This song was written for the "Pro Jugendschutz" initiative that aims to decriminalize the use of cannabis in Switzerland. We'd love to hear a cover version by a reggae band so if you like the song and want to play or record it then go ahead...
If you're into the cannabis legalization movement and want to use the song for a compilation or similar then please get in touch with us.
Style: pop reggae

Lyrics Mother nature has given us the herb
To cure us and to make us feel good
To help us think in new and better ways
To find unity with nature.
But then came the criminals in white shirt and tie
They say that Ganja is a crime
They rob our houses, they steal our grass
They even put us into jail
You gotta fight, you gotta fight,
You gotta fight for your right to get high
You gotta fight, you gotta fight,
You gotta fight for your right to fly
They like to talk about democracy
They say they fight for freedom
This is no freedom if they steal our grass
And punish us for smoking
We gotta stand up and fight for our rights
'Cause they won't stop before we stop them
We are so many, together we're strong
You just have to give it a try.
You gotta fight, you gotta fight,
You gotta fight for your right to get high
You gotta fight, you gotta fight,
You gotta fight for your right to fly
Looking forward to hearing from you:
(PJ Wassermann).
