“In her Victory Garden,
the seeds grow all around,
She plants you dig,
she’s flipped her wig,
Sweet Marihuana Brown”

Sweet Marihuana Brown
Boy she’s really fancy,
the wildest chick in town.
She blows her gage,
flies in a rage,
Sweet Marihuana Brown.
In her Victory Garden,
the seeds grow all around,
She plants you dig,
she’s flipped her wig,
Sweet Marihuana Brown
She don’t know where she’s going,
she don’t care where she’s been,
But everytime you take her out,
she’s bound to take you in.
Boy, that gal means trouble,
you ought to put her down.
Get hip, take care,
look out, beware,
of Sweet Marihuana Brown
