[1. Strophe]
I stand up for my right
I wanna smoke my pipe
World would be a paradise
Legalize it, legalize
I’m coming from Jamaica
This land I really lika-a
I’m the greatest musicclown
From old Kingston-Town
But now I’m jetzt in Europ-a
My head is full with dope-a
I make mir Zöpfchen in my Haar
And look as a Rastafa
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh, oh
Reggae, Reggae
If you are a Rasta-man
You can make a lot of Zaster then
You climb the charts up easily
With this simple philosophy
[Refrain]
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[2. Strophe]
Now I’m a little Rastafa
With a lot of Knotel in my Haar
Ob Dope oder Jamaica Rum
I wanna be in Delirium
Now I’ve to tell you and it is true
To smoke is what we have to do
Oh for a world in harmony
That’s my philosophy
[Refrain]
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
[3. Strophe]
And now, listen people
I’ve something to tell you
Maybe there are problems
In this world, war, racism
And I, I don’t know
Maybe it’s a bad world
But I don’t want to see it
Oh no, no, no
All we have to do is to smoke
Yeah, to smoke
And you kick your troubles away like a coconut, yeah
You see, it’s easy
And now, you buy my new record
And sing this little song with me
Okay, come on all
With this beautiful Reggae-Melody
And this stupid philosophy
Yeah, and it goes like this
Huh, come on
[Refrain]
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Yes I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
I wanna (i wanna), i wanna (i wanna) smoke Marihuana
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
