Don't Bogart Me (Don't Bogart That Joint) Lyrics
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Roll another one
Just like the other one
You've been hangin' on to it
And I sure would like a hit
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Rooooooooooll another one
Just like the other one
That one's just about burned to the end
So come on and be a real friend
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Everybody, sing along this time!
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to meee~
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Just like the other one
You've been hangin' on to it
And I sure would like a hit
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Just like the other one
That one's just about burned to the end
So come on and be a real friend
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to me
Pass it over to me
Don't bogart that joint, my friend
Pass it over to meee~

i remember this from "Easy Rider". I really didn't like this. It's originaly named, "Don't Bogart Me".
Outside Providence is the first thing that comes to my mind when i here this song.
Why "Bogart"? I totally get the song, and when I was young we used "bogart" to mean hogging anything...but where did they get that?
Did Humphrey Bogart get his cigarette all slobbery or something? I gon't get it.
The word "bogart" clearly refers to the action of holding the joint rather than keeping it moving. I think the word "bogart" refers to Humphrey Bogart's handling of cigarettes in his films. They're talking about a person who holds onto the joint and waves it around while talking for emphasis. So a person who bogarts the joint isn't actively smoking, nor passing it to someone else -- just holding it while it smolders, or maybe taking a second draw after holding it.
