Lyrics

[Conversation Intro] "Man, whats the matter with that cat there?" "Must be full of reefer" "Full of reefer?!" "Yeah man" "You mean that cat's high?!" "Sailing" "Sailing" "Sailing lightly" "Get away from here" "Man, is that the reefer man?" "That's the reefer man" "I believe he's losing his mind" "I think he's lost his mind!" [Song] Oh, have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) If he said he swam to China, and he sell you South Carolina Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man (Reefer man!) If he said he walks the ocean, any time he takes the notion Then you know you're talkin' to reefer man (Reefer man!) Have you ever met this funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) Oh, baby, baby, baby, reefer man, reefer man (Reefer man!) If he trades you dimes for nickles and calls watermelons pickles Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) If he takes a sudden mania, wants to give you Pennsylvania Then you know you're talking to the reefer man Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man!) If he says Wall Street is manic 'cause he won't sell the Atlantic Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man
