Smoke

Smoke Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Too ready his little girl, you’ve gone so far
Keep begging ’til you’re smiling, you’re a movie star
Songs from the 50’s your mamas used to sing
Oh, in the kitchen while she’s makin’ dinner for your family

[Verse 2]
Keep dreaming, baby girl, keep your head up high
Waiting for your mama to sing lullabies
But daddy isn’t here and mamas smoking stacks
Oh, headaches from the smokey smell ain’t getting wrecked

[Chorus]
Closure to encourage, and I’ll be awake
Sing yourself to sleep, learn how to be afraid
All you have is God, always a rivalry
While your lungs get filled with all the smoke you breathe

[Bridge]
Don’t you worry, now you’re safe, you little thing
Daddy will come back and therefore he will sing
Sing a precious lullaby to you, he will
While mama smokes her cancer to the dawn still

[Chorus]
Closure to encourage and I’ll be awake
Sing yourself to sleep, learn how to be afraid
All you have is God, always a rivalry
While your lungs are filled with all the smoke you breathe
Closure to encourage and I’ll be awake
Sing yourself to sleep learn how to be afraid
All you have is God, always is rivalry
While your lungs are filled with all the smoke you breathe
