Taylor Big - The Ballad Of Purvis Greene Lyrics

Send "The Ballad Of Purvis Greene" ringtone to your cell

Way up on the mountain about a mile from here

There's some vegetation growing that the people fear

Cause it makes you laugh

The laws forbid such fun as that.

It makes you laugh

The laws forbid such fun as that.

I promised my folks before they died

That i'd keep the family farm and i've always tried

But when money's low

You know what crop this poor man grows.

But when money's low

You know what crop this poor man grows.

Made just enough to stay ahead of broke

Without that crop there'da been no hope;

You know it's awful hard

To make a living off a worn-out hillside farm;

Yeah it's awful hard

To make a living off a worn-out hillside farm;

How could it be such a terrible crime

To help your family and your farm survive?

It hurt no one

For them that used it harmless fun.

It hurt no one

For them that used it harmless fun.

Off my front porch i seen a helicopter buzz

The back road's blocked by swat team fuzz

And they mean me harm

Imprison me and take my farm.

And they mean me harm

Imprison me and take my farm.

Seized and sold at half its price

They took my land and my way of life

And for all they done

You know locking me up didn't stop it none

And for all they done

You know locking me up didn't stop it none.

Marijuana smoke ain't blowin' away

I'm here to tell you its around to stay;

So i wanna know

Why can't they just leave us alone?

So i wanna know

Why can't they just leave us alone?
