CIGARETTEs WHISKEY AND WILD WILD WOMEN

 

cho: Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women

     They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane;

     Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women

     They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane;

 

Once I was happy and had a good wife

I had enough money to last me for life

Then I met with a gal and we went on a spree

She taught me smokin' and drinkin' whiskee

  (CHORUS)

 

Cigarettes are a blight on the whole human race

A man is a monley with one in his face;

Take warning dear friend, take warning dear brother

A fire's on one end, a fools on the t'other.

  (CHORUS)

 

And now good people, I'm broken with faith

The lines on my face make a well written page

I'm weavin' this story -- how sadly but true

On women and whiskey and what they can do

 (CHORUS)

 

Wild the cross at the head of my grave

For women and whiskey here lies a poor slave.

Take warnin' poor stranger, take warnin' dear friend

In wide clear letters this tale of my end.

 (CHORUS)
