(Difford/Tilbrook)
|
|
The cigarette of a single man
|
Burns in the ashtray by his bed
|
He pulls the ring of another can
|
And holds it up beside his head
|
The book he reads is on the floor
|
He¡¯s read it several times before
|
What you got to go home to?
|
|
The cigarette of a single man
|
Sits in the ashtray on the bar
|
He sits and sifts through several plans
|
But knows alone he won¡¯t go far
|
He needs the love another has
|
To help him, if another can
|
|
The cigarette of a single man
|
Lays in the gutter by his side
|
Now he¡¯s one of those little lambs
|
Who strayed too far from the flock to find
|
He¡¯s better off without the grief
|
That people wear between their teeth
|
|
And in his mouth as he¡¯s asleep
|
The cigarette of a single man
|
