Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)" is a Western swing novelty song written by Merle Travis and Tex Williams, for Williams and his talking blues style of singing. Travis wrote the bulk of the song. The original Williams version went to number one for 16 non-consecutive weeks on the Hot Country Songs chart and became a number one hit in August 1947 and remained at the top of the "Best Sellers in Stores" chart for six weeks.
Produced by Lee Gillette. Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette) Lyrics. He said "I'll tell you in just a minute or two Right now, I just gotta have myself a cigarette". Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette) (Puff, puff, puff and if you smoke yourself to death) Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate That you hates to make him wait You've gotta have another cigarette. The other night I had me a date With the cutest little gal on East 50 States One 'em high-bred, uptown, fancy little dames. She said she loved me and it seemed to me That everything's bout like it oughta be So hand in hand we strolled down lover's lane
