Sly Cigarette Lyrics - Brave Combo

That sly cigarette. 

Song sung in 1898 by miss. s. h. dudley for the runaway girl 

And this is tiny tim trying to redo it. 

If girls and boys were asked what joys 

They found the most entrancing 

Each boy would name his favorite game 

>from sports, drink and dancing 

But girls with me will all agree 

Although you think I'm joking 

With twinkling eye they'd make reply 

The best of all is smoking. 

Oh, sly cigarette 

Oh, fine cigarette 

Why did you teach me to love you so 

When I have to pretend that I don't, you know

(repeat above three times) 

Oh, you poor little cigarette! 

How they're stomping and crushing you today. 

They're taking advantage of your small little nature 

They're blaming you for cancer when you can still get 

Cholesterol from butter and fat from lard and bacon 

And all these meats and cheeses that are causing heart attacks and tumors 

Why are they picking on you, 

oh sly cigarette? it's not fair, somebody has to protest! 

And get back to normality again 

Oh, sly cigarette 

Oh, fine cigarette 

Why did you teach me to love you so 

When I have to pretend that I don't, you know

Oh, sly cigarette 

Oh, fine cigarette 

Why did you teach me to love you so
