Hank Thompson Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! That Cigarette Lyrics:
SMOKE! SMOKE! SMOKE! THAT CIGARETTE Writer Merle
Travis Now I'm a fellow with a heart of gold And
the ways of a gentleman I've been told
Kind-of-a-guy that wouldn't even harm a flea But
if me and a certain character met The guy that
invented that cigarette I'd murder that son-of-a
gun in the first degree It ain't cuz I don't smoke
'em myself and I don't reckon that it'll hinder
your health I smoked 'em all my life and I ain't
dead yet But nicotine slaves are all the same at a
pettin' party or a poker game Everything gotta
stop while they have a cigarette CHORUS Smoke,
smoke, smoke that cigarette Puff, puff, puff until
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. In a game
of chance the other night Old dame fortune was

good and right The kings and queens they kept on
comin' around, I was hittin' em good and
bettin' 'em high But my bluff didn't work on a
certain guy He kept callin' me and layin' his money
down, he'd raise me then I'd raise him and I'd
say to him buddy ya gotta sink or swim Finally
He called me but didn't raise the bet! I
said Aces Full Pal -- How about you? He said,
"I'll pay up in a minute or two But right
now, I just gotta have another cigarette."
CHORUS Now the other night I had a date with the
cutest little gal in any state A high-bred,
uptown, fancy little dame She said she loved me
and it seemd to me That things were sorta like
they oughtta be So hand in hand we strolled down
lovers lane She was a long way from a chunk of ice
And our pettin' party was goin' real nice And I
got an idea I might have been there yet So I give
her a kiss and a little squeeze Then she said,
Excuse me Please But I just gotta have another
cigarette."

[CHORUS]
