Ringo Starr had a solo hit "No No Song" (written by Hoyt Axton) in 1974 which includes lyrics that refuse marijuana cocaine and booze... Could this be it?

A lady that I know just came from Colombia
She smiled because I did not understand
Then she held out some marijuana, oh ho
She said it was the best in all the land
/ C G F C / F - C - / - - F - / G - C - /

And I said, "No-no-no-no, I don't smoke it no more
I'm tired of waking up on the floor
No thank you please, it only makes me sneeze
Then it makes it hard to find the door"

Hello there,
John K gave you the right answer. The song you are referring to is the No No Song by Ringo.
