Story behind the song
This is a song about a wonderful place in Vancouver, British Columbia. Some things change over time, and I'm happy to say that at least we will be seeing more places like this open up around North America. Spark it up and pass it this way! Studio version on "We Just Want The World"
Lyrics
I wish I was up in Vancouver At the Cannabis Cafe Smoking good old sensemelia At the beginning of the day But here I am in New York City Hiding out in Central Park Getting kidnapped by the police Today sometime before dark But I wish I was up in Vancouver... The judge looked down upon me, frowing He said, "kid, get on your way "Just don't start out your morning "With espresso and a j" I said I wish I was up in Vancouver... I hitched a ride out to Portland Caught one up to B.C. Took a bus over to Hastings Street To have a bowl with my coffee Now I'm up in Vancouver...
