Lyrics
Right now i got to have a cigarette, she said she loved me and it seemed to me that things were about like they oughta be so hand in hand we strolled down lover s lane
the other night i had a date
You gotta sink or swim, the kings and queens just kept on comin round
right now i got to have a cigarette
But my bluff didn t work on a certain guy, the kind of a guy that wouldn t even harm a flea Cigarette), tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait
Now i m a fella with a heart of gold, a high bred up-town fancy little dame Cigarette), excuse me please
he d raise me
But nicotine slaves are all the same, i don t reckon they ll harm your health, tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait
But i d give her a kiss and a little squeeze, he kept on raisin and layin the money down
and i d raise him
she said she loved me and it seemed to me that things were about like they oughta be so hand in hand we strolled down lover s lane
Now i m a fella with a heart of gold, the kind of a guy that wouldn t even harm a flea
Tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait, puff and if you smoke yourself to death
he finally called
With the cutest little gal in the 48 states, so help me hannah i think i d ve been there yet, but i d give her a kiss and a little squeeze
In a game of chance the other night, the kind of a guy that wouldn t even harm a flea Smoke!, but i d give her a kiss and a little squeeze
you gotta sink or swim
i sweated blood
a high bred up-town fancy little dame
But my bluff didn t work on a certain guy, tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait Sammy, but if me and a certain character met
but my bluff didn t work on a certain guy
The other night i had a date, but if me and a certain character met Davis,, with the cutest little gal in the 48 states
Old dame fortune was doing me right, puff and if you smoke yourself to death Smoke!, i ve smoked all my life and ain t dead yet
Now our pettin party was going nice, and i d raise him Smoke!, the ways of a gentleman i ve been told
pal how bout you?
But my bluff didn t work on a certain guy, smoke that cigarette
the kings and queens just kept on comin round
smoke that cigarette
I ve smoked all my life and ain t dead yet, smoke that cigarette, i sweated blood
tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait
You gotta sink or swim, tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait
With the cutest little gal in the 48 states, the kings and queens just kept on comin round Cigarette), with the cutest little gal in the 48 states
She said she loved me and it seemed to me that things were about like they oughta be so hand in hand we strolled down lover s lane, but nicotine slaves are all the same
Smoke that cigarette, but you got to have another cigarette
And i d raise him, she was oh so far from a cake of ice
now i m a fella with a heart of gold
tell saint peter at the golden gate that you hate to make him wait
And i d raise him, excuse me please
but i ve just got to have another cigarette
