Medical Marijuana Businesses Subject of Federal Tax Proposal Sponsored by Rep. Jared Polis

Legalize it like wine make it

Legalize it like wine

make it so it's not a crime

to use a little to unwind

for patients with glacoma who are going blind

or for someone with a crack in their spine

stop wasting all this time

trying to make it hard to find

cause we can all just grow it on a vine

oh legalize it like wine legalize it like wine

no more killing for a dime

no more bad boys on channel nine

no more underground mine

crossing our borderline

just listen to my ryhme

get the president to sign

to legalize it like wine

and everything will be fine
