Between the lunch and
dinner rush
Kelly caught that
outbound bus for Vegas
We're all out here
talking trash, making bets
Lips wrapped round our
cigarettes
She always thought she
was too good to be a waitress
Well, we all say that
we'll quit someday
When our ship comes in,
we'll just sail away.
But we're just blowin' smoke
Hey yeah! We're just
blowin' smoke
Hey yeah! Out here
goin' broke
Hey yeah! Yeah we're
just blowin' smoke.
Well Janie got divorced
again
Her ex-husband's in the
pen
From two to five, five
to ten and longer
Brenda's traded smokes
for cake,
still hadn't lost that
baby weight
And that baby's about
to graduate, from college
I'm just flicking ash into
the tray
Tell them both it'll be
okay.
We all say that we'll quit
someday
When our nerves ain't
shot
And our hands don't
shake, yeah
We all say that we'll quit
someday
When our nerves ain't
shot
And our hands don't
shake
Wipe down the bar, take
out the trash
Light one up and count
my cash
Swear I'm never coming
back again.
This country song is not about smoking but about the
lies you tell yourself just to deal with making it through your life without
giving up hope or losing your mind.
