When the Sheriff found the plants they were 8 feet tall at least. Growing in a grassy little verge off the highway to the east "Who owns this land?" the Sheriff had to know. He said "Someones got to pay the price For letting the plants grow"
The land belonged to God himself the record clearly showed. So God went on the wanted list the crime scene it got mowed. God himself showed up in court to answer for his crime. For growing those illegal plants he may have to serve some time
Mother Nature Mary Jane what ever did you do To make the world so frightened of a little plant like you The corporate propaganda that the legal drug lords sling Is just another joker's play in this court of greedy kings A court of greedy kings
God said "Are you all crazy? I sent this as a gift. To ease your stressed and worried little minds your spirits I would lift"
"You ADMIT" the Judge exclaimed "to committing such a crime?" "So although I hate to do it, you'll have to serve the time" So they locked God up in the federal penn for his lifetime no parole. The bars and walls will pass to dust and the Judge fears for his soul.
Now the moral to this little tale in you couldn't tell They'll try to make illegal anything that they can't sell.... Cuz it grows so well
Mother Nature Mary Jane what ever did you do? To make the world so frightened of a little plant like you. The corporate propaganda that the legal drug lords sling Is just another joker's play in this court of greedy kings A court of greedy kings

<p>I was born in SE Missouri, and raised in that rural midwest way. I grew up in and around the church as my dad was a preacher and my mom played piano and sang.</p><p>I learned to swim in the Mississippi river, played in corn fields, and grew up to be a teen in the 70s smokin lots of weed and rebelling against nothing.</p><p>I was an awkward loner of a teen and music was my escape. I loved CSNY, Pink Floyd, Genesis, James Taylor, Harry Chapin, Cat Stevens, The Beatles and everything else that had some depth. As soon as I started playing guitar I began to try to imitate what I was listening to. I started writing not long after I picked up the guitar. I always had plenty of agnst to drive the music. I also had lots of advice as I knew everything.</p><p>I moved to Houston in 1980 at the age of 20. I started playing out locally and began opening for some of the great Texas Singer/Songwriters like Shake Russell, John Vandiver and David Rodriguez. I was in awe of these guys and they spurred me on.</p><p>Through the 80s I played here and there and continued to write. I met my wife in 1990 and we moved to Austin where I got serious about pursuing music. I signed a management and publishing deal with Mark Hybner and recorded a few songs with Mark Hallman at Congress house. Brad Kopp (Jimmy Dale Gilmore) and Mark Hallman (Dan Fogelberg) played on and produced my tunes. Then the kids started coming and life got in the way; music was put on the back burner.</p><p>We moved to Iowa in 1995 and I continued to write but without putting too much effort into it. Starving and supporting a family has a way of making music less important.</p><p>In 1999 I moved to Vermont where I was able to setup a studio and work on music.</p><p>In 2003 I released the album that I started in 1992. Two songs were recorded in Austin, the rest in my studio/office in Vermont.</p><p>I am continuing to work on my next album.</p>
