Charles Strouse
Gimme Some
[TERRY]
Beer and whiskey
Whiskey and beer
Makes your head start aching
Makes your eyes unclear
Makes you waste your money
Turns you blind and dumb
[JOE]
Gimme some
[TERRY]
Strong tobacco
Cigarette smoke
Such a dirty habit
Makes you damn near choke
[JOE]
Fills your lungs with poison
Makes your brain go numb
[TERRY]
Gimme some
[JOE]
Will you ever get smart?
[TERRY]
I doubt it
Tell me something's bad and I can't live without it
[JOE]
Pretty women
Blue-eyed or brown
How they drive you crazy
How they drag you down
Soon they're fat and happy
You're a worn out bum
Gimme some
Gimme some
Will I ever get smart?
I doubt it
Tell me something's bad and I can't live without it
[TERRY]
Say I'm foolish
Tell me I'm strange
Sure, but I'm still having
Too much fun to change
[JOE]
Guess you'll go on saying
'Til your time has come
[TERRY]
Gimme some
[JOE]
Gimme some
[TERRY & JOE]
Gimme some
[JOE, spoken]
You're too old to smoke. Gimme that cigarrette
