"When I'm watchin' my T.V.
And that man comes on to tell me
How white my shirts can be
But he can't be a man 'cause he doesn't smoke
The same cigarrettes as me"
- Rolling Stones
The "same cigarettes as me" part does not refer to marijuana as a different cigarette, it is simply used as an identification tool to differentiate their levels in society. For example, a more expensive cigarette is smoked by a wealthier man, so the writer of this song could see him as a sellout and therefore not a man.
