Rick Fontaine - Runnin' from the Man (Bonus Track)

Passin' my days in a Kingston town
I got my own cure when I'm feeling down
I grow it outside my backdoor step
The sun shines down and I keep it wet

My brother come 'round, he want a favor
I give him my seed, he like the flavor
Before I know it, he wants more
Now the whole village wants that score

They took it away
They took it away
They took it away
They took it away

Passin' my days in a Kingston jail
The Man come around and he give me hell
They took me away for growing a weed
They don't know I still got my seed

They took it away
They took it away
They took it away
They took it away

Then one day my brothers come 'round
They took up arms and burned the jail to the ground
Passin' my days running from The Man
They took my weed but I got a seed in my hand

They took it away
They took it away
They took it away
They took it away
Ah yeah
