There's a funny letter that was sent from Joe Higgs lawyer to Sublime when they were trying to obtain the rights to the song for their Robbin' The Hood album. Apparently, Peter Tosh's estate was trying to claim the rights to this song, but Higgs' lawyer had to jog their memory and remind them that it was actually written by Joe Higgs. The line "Don't watch my size" is in reference to Higgs being of small stature, meanwhile Peter Tosh was 6' 6"
