Merle Haggard, who criticized pot-smokers in his 1969 hit 'Okie From Muskogee,' is now coming clean with his own battle with marijuana. What began as a doctor-suggested alternative to Valium turned into an addiction that the 71-year-old country legend has tried to quit in the past.

Actually, Leigh, Okie from Muskogee was written tongue in cheek -- so both pot smokers and non-pot smokers could appreciate it.
