I Got Stoned and I Missed It

Lyrics

Oh yes boys play it sweet for me
 I was sittin' in my basement I'd just rolled myself a taste of
 Somethin' green and gold and glorious to get me through the day
 When my friend yells through my transom grab your coat an' get your hat son
 There's a nut down on the corner a givin' dollar bills away
 But I sat around a bit and then I had another hit
 And then I rolled myself a bomber thought about my momma
 Looked around fooled around played around while and then
 I got stoned and I missed it I got stoned and I missed it
 I got stoned and it rolled right by
 I got stoned and I missed it I got stoned and I missed it I got stoned oh me oh my
 It took seven months of urgin' just to get that local virgin
 With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit
 And next day she woke up rosy and she snuggled up so cosy
 But when she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit
 I got stoned and I missed it...
 I ain't makin' no excuses for so many things I uses
 Just to brighten my relationships and sweeten up my day
 But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover
 And they ask me how my life has been I guess I have to say
 I was stoned and I missed it...
