A
Now I'm a fellow with a heart of gold,
D
And the ways of a gentleman I've been told,
E A
kind of a guy that wouldn't even harm a flea.

But if me and a certain character met,

the guy that invented the cigarette,

I'd murder that son-of-a gun in the first degree.

A
It ain't cause I don't smoke 'em myself,
D
and I don't reckon that it'll hinder your health,

But nicotine slaves are all the same,

at a pettin' party or a poker game,

everything gotta stop, while they have a cigarette.

A
In a game of chance the other night,
D
Old Dame Fortune was good and right,
E A
The kings and queens they kept on comin' around.
A
Aw, I was hittin' 'em good and bettin' 'em high,
D
but my bluff didn't work on a certain guy,
E A
he kept callin', and layin' his money down.
A
See, he'd raise me, then I'd raise him,
D
and I'd say to him buddy, ya gotta sink or swim,
E A
he finally called me but didn't raise the bet.
A
Hmmm..I said, Aces Full, pal..I got you!

He said, I'll pay up in a minute or two,

A
Now the other night I had a date,
D
with the cutest little gal in any state,
E A
a high-bred, uptown, fancy little dame.
A
She said she loved me and it seemd to me,
D
that things were sorta like they oughtta be,
E A
so, hand in hand we strolled down lovers lane.
A
She was a long way from a chunk of ice,
D
and our pettin' party was goin' real nice,
E A
and I got an idea I might have been there, yet.
A
So I give her a kiss and a little squeeze,

Then she said, Travis, excuse me please,

but I just gotta have a cigarette.
