Reefer Man (09-16-43) - Fats Waller

I dreamed about a reefer 5 feet long

Mighty miff and not too strong

You’ll be high but not for long

If you a viper

I am the queen of everything

I got to be high before I can swing

Light a tea and let it be

If you a viper

Then your throat gets dry

You know you’re high

Everything is dandy

Bust on down to the corner store

Crack your mouth on peppermint candy

Then you know your body is spent

You don’t care if you don’t pay rent

The sky is high and so am I

If you a viper

I dreamed about a reefer 5 feet long

Mighty miff but not too strong

You’ll be high but not for long

If you a viper

I am the queen of everything

I’ve got to be high before I can sing

Light a tea and let it be

If you a viper

Well, then your throat gets dry

You know you’re high

Everything is dandy

You bust it down to the corner store

Break your mouth on candy

Then you know your body is spent

You don’t care if you don’t pay rent

The sky is high and so am I

If you a viper
