"30 Days in the Hole" was the seventh single by English rock outfit Humble Pie, one of the first so-called supergroups of the 1960s-'70s. Released in 1972, the song became a radio hit but failed to chart. The B-side on its US release was "Sweet Peace and Time", while everywhere else they were "C'mon Everybody" and "Road Runner".

The song, a group composition, mentions many illegal drugs, slang references for marijuana such as Durban poison, a potent strain originating from South Africa, and Black Nepalese, a type of hashish.

The song has been much covered, most notably by Gov't Mule and Mr. Big, and remains possibly one of the group's better known songs.
