Well I wanna tell you all a story about a girl I used to know
|
She told me that she loved me that was a long time ago
|
I wanna tell you all my story but first
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette I ain't over her yet
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette try to forget
|
I wanna blow myself a smoke ring
|
down to the corner of my mind
|
I wanna round up all my troubles
|
from all the things she left behind
|
Gonna build myself a fire but first
|
I wanna smoke that cigarette I ain't over her yet
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette try to forget
|
I wanna puff and hold my breath
|
and blow her house down
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette 'cause my baby left town
|
I don't care what the surgeon general say
|
or all them people on the airplanes
|
Gonna smoke a - if it be my death
|
Buddy can't you see that girl she was my very life and breath
|
|
We used to smoke one together right after we made love
|
and it circled all around her like she was someone from above
|
Now I know it's just evil but still
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette try to forget
|
I wanna smoke this cigarette I ain't over her yet
|
|
I wanna smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
|
I wanna choke choke choke me half to death
|
