LYRICS

Alright now!
Won’t you listen?

When I first met you didn’t realize
I can’t forget you for your surprise
You introduced me to my mind
And left me wanting you and your kind
Oh yeah!

I love you oh you know it

My life was empty forever on a down
Until you took me showed me around
My life is free now my life is clear
I love you sweet leaf though you can’t hear
Oh yeah baby!

Come on now try it out

Straight people don’t know what you’re about
They put you down and shut you out
You gave to me a new belief
And soon the world will love you sweet leaf
Oh yeah baby
