Easy skanking, easy skanking
Easy skanking, easy skanking
Excuse me while I light my spliff
Good God I gotta take a lift
From reality I just can't drift
That's why I am staying with this riff
Take it easy, easy skanking
Got to take it easy, easy skanking
Take it easy, easy skanking
Brother, take easy, easy skanking
We're taking it easy
We taking it slow,
Taking it easy, taking it slow
Take it easy, easy skanking
Got to take it easy, easy skanking
Take it easy, easy skanking
Skanking take it easy
Excuse me while I light my spliff
Oh God I gotta take a lift
From reality I just can't drift
That's why I am staying with this riff
Take it easy, taking it easy
Got to take it easy, taking it slow
Take it easy, taking it easy
Skanking take it easy, taking it slow
Some herb for my wine
Some honey for my strong drink
Herb for my wine, honey for my strong drink
Take it easy, taking it easy
Got to take it easy, skanking it slow
Take it easy, taking it easy
Brother, take it easy, skanking it slow
