What are your favourite songs about, influenced by, or involving drugs? Mine is 'Heroin' by the Velvet Underground.
Hiya I would have said the same answer... then I guess it's "White Rabbit" from Jefferson Airplane, or "Lucy in the sky with Diamonds" from the Beatles......
I'm disappointed no one has said "Casey Jones" from the Grateful Dead... But I'd say Claptons verson of "Cocain" played live is the way to go. Another good one Neil Young's wonderful song of Heroin "Needle and the damage done"

Yup, written when he was trying to get clean, and stay away from his gf who was a user. check out the lyrics... Here comes Dolly Dagger Her love’s so heavy, gonna make you stagger. Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge... ah Drink up baby Been riding broomsticks since she was fifteen. Blown out all the other witches on the scene. She got a bull whip, just as long as your life. Her tongue can even scratch the soul out of the devil’s wife. Well I seen her in action at the Player's Choice. Turnin' all the love men into donor boys. Hey, red hot mama you'd better step aside, this chicks gonna turn you to a block of ice. look out Here comes Dolly Dagger, her loves so strong gonna make you stagger baby. Dolly Dagger, she drinks her blood from a jagged edge. Ride over, drink up, baby hey! Yeah, look at old burnt out superman tryin' shoot his dust off the sun. Kattenjammer kids they're dead on the run. Oh words of love (?) do they ever touch Charlie Brown? Better get some highway and clear out of town. Here comes Dolly Dagger, her loves so heavy its gonna make you stagger. Dolly Dagger, she ain't satisfied until she gets what shes after. She drinks her blood from a jagged edge. Better watch out baby, here comes your master,.. allright watch out devil we'll give you a little bit of that halo Dolly heavy mama get it on, get it on, get it on
forgot to mention a couple of my all time faves, Black Sabbath's Hand Of Doom James Browns King Heroin Zappa's Call Any Vegetable Sly and the Family Stone I Wanna Take You Higher rhcp Under The Bridge
There is a hip hop group who's name I can't remember but they did a humorous song about avoiding excess called 'Master Your High'. Sweet Leaf by Black Sabbath I Got Stoned And I Missed It, Accopolco Goldie and Get My Rocks Off by Dr. Hook and The Medicine Show. Charlie's Enormous Mouth and Any Downers? by Frank Zappa from You Are What You Is
Cocaine Habit Blues by The Memphis Jug Band "I love my whiskey, I love my gin But the way I love my coke is a doggone sin Hey, hey, honey take a whiff on me" The best thing about this song is it was made in the 30's...
Ohh, I forgot one... Cult 45-Afroman It's not really completely about drugs...but it's about rapping after smoking some pot and drinking...
