Wake 'n Bake
Simplified Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Started with a wake 'n bake,
Said we feel alright,
Got to hit the road soon,
Got my show tonight,
So come on,
Lets get it right now,
So come on,
Lets get inside now,
So come on,
Started with a wake 'n bake,
Said we feel alright,

The lines roll by as I sit and sigh,
Why they spark the flame,
We ain't got no lou dog,
But the van still smells the same,
So come on,
Lets get it right now,
So come on,
Lets get inside now,
Everything will be alright,
Once we spark the flame,

I feel so good tonight,
Said me feel alright,
I don't think I'll get to sleep before first light,
So come on,
Lets get it right now,
So come on,
Lets get inside now,
So come on,
Hanging with the friends tonight,
Said we feel alright,

Now just a little wake 'n bake,
Said we feel alright,
Got to hit the road soon,
Got my show tonight,
So come on,
Lets get right now,
So come on,
Lets get inside now,
So come on,
Come on,
Come on,
Come on,
Here comes the sun,
The strawberry fields,
The joker,
The smoker,
The midnight toker,
And its all all right all of us,
Lets take a little ride on the magic bus,
So come on,
Lets get it right now,
So come on,
Lets get inside now,
So come on,




Started with a wake 'n bake,
Said we feel alright

Sunday, 6:57AM, 2023, Jan 29... I worked yesterday, and now I'm waking up after a long day of work, and I am grinding my bud and packing my bowl and listening to this song. Hey, you, if you're reading this, REMEMBER, LIFE IS SHORT. Live, Love, and Have fun! Take every moment and cherish them, even the moment you're here alive and not pushing daisies and having the opportunity to listen to this damn good Jam! Peace love and happiness ya'll. Try to limit your addictions and if you need to clear your head, smoke a damn bowl!!!!! LOVE YOU ALL!!
