Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Oh, have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
If he says he swam to China and he'd sell you South Carolina
Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man (Reefer man)
[Verse 2]
Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
If he says he walks the ocean, any time he takes the notion
Then you know you're talkin' to the reefer man (Reefer man)
[Verse 3]
Have you ever met this funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
Oh, baby, baby, baby, reefer man (Reefer man)
If he trades you dimes for nickels and calls watermelon pickles
Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man (Reefer man)
[Verse 4]
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, he wants to give you Pennsylvania
Then you know you're talkin' to the reefer man
[Verse 5]
Have you ever met that funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
Have you ever met the funny reefer man? (Reefer man)
If he says Wall Street is funny 'cause he won't sell me Atlantic
Then you know you're talkin' to that reefer man
