Cigarettes

I was all of 17, going bad boy crazy
Podunk county beauty queen
And not your auburn-headed baby
You kicked me out, I packed my bags
Hair dyed dollar store jet black
You played "Jesus Take The Wheel" every day 'til I came back

I learned sometimes your first don't last
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
I learned to live with my regrets
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes

I was all of 23, didn't know what I didn't know
They swore I'd be the next big thing
But the room was full of smoke
Had to watch my dream fall through
I gave myself a day or two
And the same champagne that they bought me
I popped it when they dropped me

I learned sometimes your first don't last
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
I learned to live with my regrets
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes

I remember 13
Tip toes in the deep end
And the smell of Marlboro Reds
Every once in a weekend

I learned sometimes your first don't last
I learned to scream, I learned to laugh
I learned to live with my regrets
I learned I hate, I hate cigarettes
