I was sitting in my basement I just rolled myself a taste

Of something green and gold and glorious to get me through the day

Then my friend yelled through the transom "Grab your coat and get your hat son

There's a nut down on the corner, givin' dollar bills away"

But I laid around a bit

Then I had another hit

Then I rolled myself a bauma

Then I thought about my mama

Then I fooled around, played around

Jacked around a while and then

I got stoned and I missed it

I got stoned and I missed it

I got stoned and it rolled right by

I got stoned and I missed it

I got stoned and I missed it

I got stoned oh me oh my

Now it took seven months of urging just to get that local virgin

With the sweet face up to my place to fool around a bit

Next day she woke up rosy and she snuggled up so cosy

When she asked me how I liked it Lord it hurt me to admit

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and it rolled right by

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned oh me oh my

Now I ain't makin' no excuses for the many things I uses

Just to sweeten my relationships and brighten up my day

But when my earthly race is over and I'm ready for the clover

And they ask me how my life has been I guess I'll have to say

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and it rolled right by

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned and I missed it

I was stoned oh me oh my
