What song has the lyrics A wise man a very wise man once called it the diggity dank?

Answer 1

In "Keep on Going" by Yonder Mountain String Band on Mountain Tracks Vol. 1, the band does a rendition of "Legalize it" by Peter Tosh. During the post-jam introduction into "Legalize it", the lead singer says that line.

Here are the lyrics to that part:

"Some people call it weed. So I been playing with this band for two years and I still don't know what the f**k they're talking about"

"Well david, you know, a wise man, a very wise man, he once called it the diggity dank. I tell you my friends, it don't matter what you call it, as long as you twist it and roll it and smoke it down. I tell you my friends, it don't matter what it looks like, as long as it ain't got no seeds and very little stems. We like the green that come-uh come-uh up da ground. We smoke it we smoke it we smoke it we pass it, we pass it all around..."

Hope this helps, really great band, by the way.
