This song was quoted by Caitrin on 24-Apr-00, and then was mentioned again by an unnamed guest on 17-Nov-07. The tone sounds kinda ironic to me.


TOBACCO SONG
As recorded by Mike Cross on “Irregular Guy,” 2006

Tobacco is an evil weed; it’ll take away your breath,
Stain your teeth and make you weak and burn your lungs to death.

Little kids sneak cigarettes out behind the barn.
It makes them gag and cough because it does them so much harm.

Cigars killed my uncle Phil; we knew someday they’d git him.
He bent over in the street to pick one up and a bus rode by and hit him.

So if you smoke or dip or chew, you’d better get your fill,
’Cause if tobacco don’t get you, then anti-smokers will.
