lyrics

I got a call from my doctor this morning
He said I got bad news, and you ain’t gonna like it
But it’s time you got to choose between your lungs and your cigarettes

You’ve been smoking too long
And it’s time to give it up
Before you collapse a lung
Besides, no one wants to be your friend
When you smell like them damn cancer sticks
It's time to grow, grow old, and leave the smoking to the French.

Man, I sure hope that we can smoke in heaven
That would be alright
If when I met my maker
I could ask him for a light

Man I sure hope that we can smoke in heaven,
Bare feet in the sand
Kicking back with Jesus
With a fat one in our hand

So I’m making my request known
I’m gonna do my best ‘till He calls me home
But when I get to heaven I’ll be looking forward to that smoke.

performance of an older soul. ... more
