Ed Sheeran is thinking out loud again, and this time he's crooning publicly about weed.

The song is unmistakingly a cannabis anthem, with lyrics like "I draw you deep into my chest -- that's where it feels the best" and "I'm so damn high -- can you see my eyes?"

The 24-year-old, who was Spotify's most-streamed artist in 2014, performed the new tune (presumably titled "Sweet Mary Jane") last weekend at Forest Hills Stadium in New York.

Sheeran's song joins a long list of odes to marijauna, including Tom Petty's "You Don't Know How It Feels," Afroman's "Because I Got High, Neil Young's "Roll Another Number," and most recently, Snoop Dogg's "California Roll" featuring Pharrell Williams and Stevie Wonder.
