Newest--Just Blowing Smoke The Color Of my Blues.-
love
sorrow
cigarettes
booze
Lyrics
Might as well just light a cigarette,
they'll kill me long before life lets
your precious love come back to me.
I got wine that helps me to forget,
But I haven't found my corkscrew yet,
to drown myself in misery....
All the vices that help dull my pain,
come back around to my sober brain
so I guess tonight I'll just refrain,
from that buzz that sets me free.
Chorus-
Cause I've been drunk
on your love so long,
and they don't make alcohol that's strong....
enough to help erase..... my losing you,
and though cigarettes relieve my stress,
they'll burn out like my happiness,
"I'm just blowing smoke that's the color of my blues.
I downed six shots of whiskey
till I recalled how good you kissed me
then I staggered from that bar in an amber haze,
I drank moonshine from my neighbor's still
till I could barely breathe when I'd had my fill
but the crack of dawn just brought more lonely days.
Chorus-
Cause I've been drunk
on your love so long,
and they don't make alcohol that's strong....
enough to help erase..... my losing you,
and though cigarettes relieve my stress,
they'll burn out like my happiness,
"I'm just blowing smoke that's the color of my blues.
Bridge-
I tried whacky tobaccy,
in a bong and in a pipe,
but I wound up in a Chinese joint
eating everything in sight,
so I think it's time I gave up
all the ways to ease my grief
and start working on solutions
that'll bring you back to me....
Chorus-
Cause I've been drunk
on your love so long,
and they don't make alcohol that's strong....
enough to help erase..... my losing you,
and though cigarettes relieve my stress,
they'll burn out like my happiness,
"I'm just blowing smoke that's the color of my blues.
Yeah, I'm blowing smoke the color of my blues......
