What about "Smoke, Smoke, Smoke That Cigarette" 1947 by Merle Travis Sung by Tex Williams, Phil Harris. I think the chorus goes something like "smoke smoke smoke that cigarette, and if you smoke yourself to death Tell Saint Peter at the golden gate he'll just have to wait I just got to have another cigarette" Also "Tobacco is but an Indian Weed" Very old about 1700's I have it on an old record sung by Ray Bougaslovski Who worked with Theo Bickel
