Smoke That Cigarette

John Hiatt

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
