Randy Stonehill - Lung Cancer lyrics

She went down to the corner store
And bought a pack of filtered kings
Don't you know tomorrow she'll be
Back for more 'Cause she really loves
To smoke those things?
And every time that she inhales
A cloud of that cigarette smoke
She's just one step closer to
The man in black
And sixty cents closer to broke

She's been workin' on lung cancer emphysema
A cardiac arrest and she'll probably have a
Stroke when she sees the x rays of her chest

When she had her first cigarette
A puff or two was all she could take
Now if she doesn't have one in
Her hand all the time
You'll notice it begin to shake shake, baby!
Even though she's nonchalant
And acts as if her habit's a joke
(Ha ha hahaha)
She won't do too much laughing when
Her life goes up in smoke

She's been smokin' that C-IG-A-R-E T T-E
That cigarette's got her on her knees
C-ig-a-r-e t t-e
That darn tobacco won't set her free
Oh, run, suck, baby, suck
Suck on that cigarette
Go on and light up that fag and take a drag
It's bound to snuff you yet, baby

Whoo! Whoo! Whoo! Whoo!
Ha ha ha ha ha ha ha!

She went down to the corner store
And bought a pack of filtered kings
Hey, don't you know tomorrow she'll
Be back for more 'Cause she really loves to
Smoke those things?
And every time that she inhales
A cloud of that cigarette smoke
She's just one step closer to
The man in black
And sixty cents closer to broke

She's been workin' on lung cancer emphysema
A cardiac arrest and she'll probably have a
Stroke when she sees the x rays of her chest

She's been smokin' that C-IG-A-R-E T T-E
That cigarette's c-ig-a-r-e t t-e
That cigarette's got her on her knees
C-ig-a-r-e t t-e whoo! Oh!
Oh, yeah, oh, yeah c-ig-a-r-e t t-e
Whoo! Coughing
