Boots, Blunts & Backroads, country songs about weed? That's a thing.

As a former performer and lifelong music lover, I’ve always been someone who REALLY listens to music. I’m talking headphones on, world tuned out, completely lost in the sound. I love picking apart every layer of a song, from the melodies and bass lines to the little instrumental details you might miss if you’re just listening in the background. Even before cannabis entered the picture, music was something I loved to immerse myself in.

Then I discovered cannabis, and suddenly, it felt like I was hearing music in an entirely new way. The layers seemed deeper, the bass felt richer, and the little details I already loved picking out became even more fascinating. Songs I’d listened to a hundred times could feel brand new, like I was discovering hidden pieces of a familiar puzzle.

It wasn’t just about hearing the music anymore. It was about feeling it, getting lost in the rhythm, following every note, and letting the sound take me somewhere else entirely.

Then I started picking songs apart even further, digging into different genres, and expanding my musical horizons. Somewhere along the way, I rediscovered country music.

Now, before you scoff, and fuck off from this blog because you think country music isn't your thing, HEAR ME OUT.

Country music isn't just heartbreak, cowboy hats, cheating, whiskey bottles, and men singing about the women who done them wrong. (Although, let's be honest, those are some pretty solid ingredients for a banger.) There's a whole lot more going on beneath the twang, the steel guitars, and the boot-stomping beats.

So put on your headphones, ditch your preconceived notions, and come take a musical trip with me. We're digging into the country songs that prove there's a whole lot more than whiskey and heartbreak hiding in that honky-tonk.

1. I smoke weed- Ashland Craft & Brothers Osbourne

"There's a pretty good chance that I'm high right now

Just kidding Mr. Officer unless you're down

Oh weed, just about every day

First thing that I buy soon as I get paid"

2. The way you Roll - Chad Brownlee

   "Listenin' to Marley sing a little, "One Love"

   Worries, we don't need 'em

   Breathe in a little freedom

   You always got the good stuff"

3. Follow Your Arrow – Kacey Musgraves

   "When the straight and narrow gets a little too straight

   Roll up a joint, or don't

   Just follow your arrow wherever it points"

4. Weed Instead of Roses – Ashley Monroe

   "I don’t need a card from Hallmark

   Box of candy has a note

   Give me weed instead of roses

   Let’s see where it goes"

5. Smoke a Little Smoke – Eric Church

   "Dig down deep, find my stash

   Light it up, memory crash

   Oh no, I don't know

   Baby, might take all night

   Then I'll maybe break out that old rock 'n' roll

   Drink a little drink, smoke a little smoke"

6. SunDaze- Florida Georgia Line

   "But all I wanna do today

   Is wear my favorite shades and get stoned

   Work a little less, play a little more

   That's what this day is for"

7. Ready to Roll - Blake Shelton

   "We got some laid back country tunes on the radio

   We gonna burn all afternoon like it's something to smoke

   We gotta whole lot of nothing to do and nowhere to go

   So baby, I don't know about you, but I'm ready to roll"

8. *Bonus Track* Kacey Musgraves - A Willie Nice Christmas ( a personal favouite and in honour of our HoliDaze Gift Guide coming out November 24th, 2026.

   "I'm gonna wrap my presents up in red bandanas

   And leave some special cookies out for Santa

   Throw my troubles to the wind 'til we're back on the road again

   Here's to finding your own little piece on Earth

   And I hope you have a really

   A really, really, Willie nice Christmas

   If you're in Luckenbach or Waikiki

   I hope you have a really

   A really, really, Willie nice Christmas

   And may we all stay higher than the angel on top of the tree"
