| I’ve met many people over the years
|
| And in my opinion I have found that
|
| People are the same everywhere
|
| They have the same fears
|
| Shed similar tears
|
| Die in so many years
|
| The oppressed seem to have suffered the most
|
| In every continent — coast to coast
|
| Now our lives are in the hands of The Pusherman
|
| We break it all down
|
| In hopes that you might understand
|
| Don’t make no profit for The Man
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me There’s somethin' kinda funny
|
| How The Man take your money
|
| He’s shrewd as he can be In such a way you’ll never see
|
| It’s a terrible thing inside
|
| When your natural high has died
|
| The weaker turn to dope
|
| And put all aside their hope
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me Twinkling twinkling grains
|
| They do all sorts of things
|
| While your inner mind is pleased
|
| Your conscience is only teased…
|
| More and more you feed
|
| Until you grow another need
|
| Playing fantasy
|
| You have no reality
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me Sit down and take a listen
|
| This may be something that you’re missin'
|
| I know your mind,
|
| You want it funky
|
| But you don’t have to be no junkie
|
| Just be glad you’ve got your own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The Man can’t put no thing on me
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see
|
| My life’s a natural high
|
| The man can’t put no thing on me Sure is funky
|
| Sure is funky
|
| I ain’t no junkie
|
| I ain’t no junkie
|
| Sure is funky
|
| Sure is funky
|
| I ain’t no junkie
|
| I ain’t no junkie
|
| I’m so glad I’ve got my own
|
| So glad that I can see… |
