No Smokes Blues - Sarah Vaughan/billy eckstine
Empty cartons at the drugstore
Brother that ain't no joke
Empty cartons at the drugstore
Brother that ain't no joke
I've got a porter rock
But I'd trade it for a kingsize smoke
I've got men I've got liquor
Got everything else I need
I've got men I've got liquor
Got everything else I need
But if you hand me twenty lucky
That'll be your day's good deed
I've searched in every ashtray
Even picked butts off the floor
I've searched in every ashtray
Even picked butts off the floor
Last night I tried to smoke a pipe
But I ain't gonna do that no more
If someone don't help me soon
I believe I'm gonna lose my mind
If someone don't help me soon
I believe I'm gonna lose my mind
This mess is drivin' me to reefers
Cause they ain't half as hard to find
