[00:04.58]Now I'm a fellow with a heart of gold
[00:06.17]With the ways of a gentleman I've been told
[00:08.22]A kind of a fellow that wouldn't even harm a flea
[00:10.02]
[00:11.72]But if me and a certain character met
[00:13.36]That guy that invented the cigarette
[00:14.90]I'd murder that son of a gun in the first degree
[00:17.60]
[00:18.89]That ain't that I don't smoke myself
[00:20.74]And I don't reckon they'll harm your health
[00:22.49]I've smoked 'em all my life and I ain't dead yet
[00:24.73]
[00:26.25]But nicotine slaves are all the same
[00:27.98]At a pettin' party or a poker game
[00:29.57]Everythin's gotta stop when they have that cigarette
[00:31.68]
[00:33.56]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
[00:37.25]Puff puff puff
[00:38.60]And if you puff yourself to death
[00:40.29]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[00:42.19]That you hate to make him wait
[00:43.94]But you just gotta have another cigarette
[00:46.64]
[00:47.96]Now at a game of chance the other night
[00:49.87]Old Dame Fortune was doin' me right
[00:51.62]Them kings and queens just kept on comin' round
[00:54.06]
[00:55.20]Well I got a full and I bet it high
[00:57.14]But my plug didn't work on a certain guy
[00:58.84]He just kept a risin' and a layin' that money down
[01:01.44]
[01:02.78]He's raise me and I'd raise him
[01:04.48]I sweated blood I had to sink or swim
[01:06.28]He finally called and he couldn't raise the bet
[01:08.27]
[01:09.82]I said \"aces is full pal how about you?\"
[01:11.46]He said \"I'll tell you in a minute or two
[01:13.56]But I just gotta have another cigarette\"
[01:15.95]
[01:17.25]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
[01:20.74]Puff puff puff
[01:21.78]And if you puff yourself to death
[01:23.92]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gateif you puff yourself
[01:25.82]That you hate to make him wait
[01:27.57]But you just gotta have another cigarette
[01:30.30]
[01:46.27]The other night I had a date with
[01:47.96]with the cutest little gal in the 50 states
[01:49.66]a highbred up-town fancy little dame
[01:52.50]
[01:53.09]She said she loved me and it seemed to me
[01:54.66]That things were just about like they oughta be
[01:57.16]So hand in hand we strolled down Lover's Lane
[01:59.36]
[02:00.71]She was oh so far from a chunk of ice
[02:02.62]And our smoochin' party was a goin' real nice
[02:04.52]So help me hannah and I think I'd've been there yet
[02:06.56]
[02:08.30]But I give her a hug and a little squeeze
[02:09.89]And she said \"Willie excuse me please
[02:11.84]But I just gotta have another cigarette\"
[02:13.73]
[02:15.58]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
[02:19.02]Puff puff puff
[02:20.91]And if you puff yourself to death
[02:22.55]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[02:24.24]That you hate to make him wait
[02:26.05]But you just gotta have another cigarette
[02:28.50]
[02:30.14]Smoke smoke smoke that cigarette
[02:33.77]Puff puff puff
[02:35.16]And if you puff yourself to death
[02:37.01]Tell St Peter at the Golden Gate
[02:38.82]That you hate to make him wait
[02:40.88]But you just gotta have another cigarette
[02:44.68]Just gotta have another cigarette
