'Cucaracha' is Spanish for cockroach, so its about a pot smoking cockroach.

@millersb Actually, the term "marijuana" was completely fabricated in a magazine around the turn of the century. The etymology of the word isn't well known, and it certainly has nothing to do with tobacco. The song "La Cucaracha" does in fact reference cannabis.

"La cucaracha" was actually a slang term that the Mexican rebels, such as those under Pancho Villa, gave to the Federales.

"La cucaracha" is a mexican song about a women who smokes alot of marihuana but she doesent have any more so...

"marijuana" is a wild Mexican tobacco plant and as speedy is Mexican the song is just talking about having no tobacco to smoke. "marijuana" has become only a slang term for cannabis and does not actually mean it was referring to cannabis.

@xTheDeathSaintx he's got a new VW gti:)))... he's also a car dealer:))))
Actually it is about weed. Back when this episode was aired marijuana was still legal and was often used in cigarettes when it became illegal the episode was removed. There are version of the song where the word marijuana is replaced (for obvious reasons) but still cucaracha (like roach) was slang for marijuana... but like i said wasnt illegal at the time. If you dont believe you can watch episodes "Mexican Boarders" and "Gonzales' Tamales" (which is this one) from Speedy.
