Willie Nelson, Snoop & Kristofferson Unite For Pot-smoking Anthem
Marijuana lovers Willie Nelson, Snoop Dogg and Kris Kristofferson have teamed up to record a new weed anthem to mark the unofficial 4/20 holiday for stoners.
The unlikely trio have released Roll Me Up in honour of the day associated with joint-rolling and smoking.
Country star Jamey Johnson joins them on the track, which begins with Nelson crooning, "Roll me up and smoke me when I die".
The track is available on Nelson's official website.
The 4/20 term was coined by a group of teenagers in San Rafael, California in 1971 who pledged to meet at 4.20pm every day to search for an abandoned cannabis crop. It has since evolved into code for pot-smoking in general.
April 20 has become a counterculture holiday in North America, where people gather to celebrate and consume cannabis.
