Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette) - Tex Williams

[00:04.68]Now I'm a fellow with a heart of gold
[00:06.3]And the ways of a gentleman I've been told
[00:08.4]Kind of a guy that wouldn't even harm a flea
[00:12.05]But if me and a certain character met
[00:13.79]The guy that invented that cigarette
[00:15.57]I'd murder that son of a gun in the first degree
[00:19.65]Because I don't smoke them myself
[00:21.93]I don't reckon that it'll hinder your health
[00:23.44]I smoked them all my life and I am not dead yet
[00:27.16]But nicotine slaves are all the same
[00:29.1]At a petting party or a poker game
[00:30.96]Everything gotta stop while they have a cigarette
[00:35.0]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette(smoke smoke smoke that cigarette)
[00:38.89]Puff puff puff until you smoke yourself to death
[00:42.28]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[00:44.02]That you hate to make him wait
[00:46.36]You've gotta have another cigarette
[00:50.22]In a game of chance the other night
[00:51.8]Old dame fortune was good and right
[00:54.15]The kings and queens they kept on coming around
[00:57.97]I was hitting em good and betting them high
[00:59.46]But my bluff didn't work on a certain guy
[01:01.31]He kept calling and laying his money down
[01:05.52]See he'd raise me then I'd raise him
[01:07.01]And I'd say to him buddy ya gotta sink or swim
[01:09.06]Finally called me but didn't raise the bet
[01:12.61]I said Aces Full Pal how I got you
[01:14.91]He said I'll pay up in a minute or two
[01:16.54]But right now I just gotta have another cigarette
[01:20.71]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette(smoke smoke smoke that cigarette)
[01:24.57]Puff puff puff until you smoke yourself to death
[01:28.020004]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[01:29.76]That you hate to make him wait
[01:32.09]You've gotta have another cigarette
[01:52.1]The other night I had a date with the cutest little gal in any state
[01:55.9]When a high bred uptown fancy little dame
[01:59.55]She said she loved me and it seemd to me
[02:01.26]That things were sorta like they oughtta be
[02:03.06]So hand in hand we strolled down lovers lane
[02:07.22]She was a long way from a chunk of ice
[02:09.14]And our petting party was going real nice
[02:11.1]And I got an idea I might have been there yet
[02:14.81]I give her a kiss and a little squeeze
[02:16.73]She said Travis excuse me please
[02:18.97]I've gotta have a cigarette
[02:22.77]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette(smoke smoke smoke that cigarette)
[02:26.7]Puff puff puff until you smoke yourself to death
[02:30.16]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[02:32.06]That you hate to make him wait
[02:34.34]You've gotta have another cigarette
