Ben Harper – Burn One Down Lyrics 15 years ago
anyone who says this song isnt about pot is a fucking dumbass.

herb the gift from the earth
and what's from the earth
is of the greatest worth
so before you knock it try it first
you'll see it's a blessing
and not a curse

Ben Harper – Roses From My Friends Lyrics 15 years ago
This song is like many other Ben Harper songs, and it is about a relationship ending. He can bear the stones or insults from enemies, but he cannot bear the roses from his friends, ie the goodbyes from his lovers...

Bob Dylan – As I Went Out One Morning Lyrics 15 years ago
When i listen to this song of course i think of the revolution because of the early reference to tom paine. The second stanza definitely makes me think that dylan is portraying himself, or the narrator, as a symbol for the Americans before the revolution. The woman could be a symbol for Great Britain, because the narrator tells her to leave, and of course she doesn't wish to.

"I beg you, sir," she pleaded
From the corners of her mouth,
"I will secretly accept you
And together we'll fly south."

This could mean that Great Britain lied (corners of her mouth) to the Americans and told them they would "fly" south and gain more land. Thomas Paine's most famous pamphlet, Common Sense, is known for its revolutionary thoughts where Thomas Paine knew that there could be no reconciliation with Great Britain. Which brings me to the only part of the song that doesnt quite make sense to me, seeing as he apologizes to the narrator.

Hope this makes sense to you folks, none of it is substantiated, they are just my personal thoughts on the song.
