Texas Lightning Smoke Smoke Smoke (that Cigarette)
I'm a guy with a heart of gold
With the reasons of a gentleman I've been told
Texas A kind of a fellow that wouldn't even harm a flea
Lightning But if me and a certain character met
The man that invented the cigarette
Smoke I'd murder that son of a gun in the first degree
That
That ain't that I don't smoke myself
And I don't reckon they'll injure your health
Cigarette But I'm smoking for 25 years and I ain't dead
yet
But nicotine slaves are all the same
At a pheasant party or a poker game
Songtext Everythin's gotta stop when they have that
cigarette
Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
Puff puff puff
And if you puff yourself to death
Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
Lyric That you hate to make him wait
You just gotta have another cigarette
Now at a game of chance the other night
Ol' Dame Forson wasn't doin' me right
Liedertext Them kings and queens just kept on comin'
round
But I played thr rule and I bet it high
Alle But my plug didn't work on a certain guy
He just kept a risin' and a layin' that money down
Texas Well he's raise me and I'd raise him
I sweated blood I had to sink or swim
Lightning He finally called and he didn't raise the bet
I said "aces is full pal how about you?"
Smoke He said "I'll tell you in a minute or two
That Right now I just gotta have another of my
cigarette"
Cigarette
Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
Puff puff puff
And if you smoke yourself to death
Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hate to make him wait
But you just gotta have another cigarette
[ guitar - steel ]
The other night I had a date with
Lyrics The cutest gal in the fiftfirst states
A highbred uptown social little dame
She said she loved me and it seemed to me
That things were like they oughta be
So hand in hand we strolled down Lover's Lane
She was oh so far from a chunk of ice
And our smoochin' party was a goin' real nice
So help and I'd've been there yet
Alle But I give her a hug and a little squeeze
And she said
Texas "Johnny excuse me please
Right now I gotta have a lot of your cigarettes"
Lightning
Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
Puff puff puff
And if you smoke yourself to death
Smoke Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hate to make him wait
That But you just gotta have another cigarette
Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
Cigarette Puff puff puff
And if you puff yourself to death
Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hate to make him wait
But you just gotta have another cigarette
