Cigarettes And Whisky

(Words & music Red Ingle)

Chorus:
Cigarettes and whisky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane
Cigarettes and whisky and wild, wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane

Once I was happy and I had a good wife
I had enough money to last me for life
I met Hamish and Muriel and we went on the spree
And they taught me to smoke and drink whisky

Cigarettes are a curse on the whole human race
A man is a monkey with one in his face
Take warning dear sister, take warning dear brother
There's a fire on one end and a fool on the other

Now I am broken, weary with age
The lines on my face make a well-written page
Write this on my headstone, write this on my grave
To whisky and women this man was a slave
