I read that the lyrics describe Toots' time in prison for an arrest for possession of marijuana... I think there's a link between this song and marijuana, so, but i'm not a specialist of the group (and neither of marijuana), i'm just a big fan of this song.
Sorry for this shitty english, i'm from Belgium... =)
damn, when i smoke weed and listen to this song, im pretty sure i understand the purpose of life. okay i got it! god is love. love is everything. god is frivolous. damn i lost it
He says he got nicked while bailing out a friend and got 18 months for it in 1966.
Got nothing against people who smoke weed, smoked a half a ton in me life myself, but the song is not about it, it's about being a prisoner so the video isn't really relating to the song
and u are a cannabis user not an apprieciative member of society who accepts music.....pathetic...oh by the way, using the queen of england, why not use a dead baby with a joint....get a grip and grow up
This song is about an inocent guy thrown in jail. "54-46" is the prisoners number. toots Hibbert didn't wrote this song for utopi-smokers. This is not about ganja. Ska started out from sosial injustice.

Toots was not nicked for ganja
He says he got nicked while bailing out a friend and got 18 months for it in 1966.
Got nothing against people who smoke weed, smoked a half a ton in me life myself, but the song is not about it, it's about being a prisoner so the video isn't really relating to the song
And yeah 54-46 was Toots prison number.
