AMe and Teddy Bmused to burn that old Chevy
All the Gway up to Mary DLee's
AOne of the Bmguy's kinda ride or die

AThe whole damn Bmtown said when we come around,

Up to Ano good, Bmno we didn't have much
Just a Gwhole lotta time to Dburn
[Chorus]
So if we got Ahigh,   Bmwe got Gstoned D  
If there was a Afire,  Bmwe got it Gon D  
If there was a Abackseat,  Bmwe made Glove D  
That was Athen Bmand that was Gus D  
[Solo]

We crossed the Acounty line Bmfor a kegger one night
There were some Ggirls we had never Dseen
ATeddy had his eye Bmlocked on a dime
Mary Gsaid she was lookin' at Dme
AStandin'  Bmthere sippin' on smoke
And a Gcheap ass Dbottle of wine
She said, "AMy name's Kate, Bmyou're my kinda crazy
And it Gtakes one to know Done"

AMary Lee  Bmstarted hangin', started talkin'
With a Gboy with a checkered Dpast
AIt wasn't long be-(Bm)fore he showed his true colors
And he Gleft her all blue and Dblack
ACops stopped us  Bmrunnin' ninety
With a loaded Gpistol and a bottle of Dbooze
And it's a Agood damn thing the  Bmblue lights
Got us 'fore we'd Gget what we'd goin' Dto
[Chorus]
So if we got Ahigh,   Bmwe got Gstoned D  
If there was a Afire,  Bmwe got it Gon D  
If there was a Abackseat,  Bmwe made Glove D  
That was Athen Bmand that was Gus D  
If Awe got high, yeah, you Bmknow we're gonna roll it up
If Gwe got high, yeah, you Dknow we got stoned
If Athere was a fight then you Bmknow we're gonna back 'em up
GIf there was a fight, we got it Don

In the Gback of the seat, you Dknow we made love
