Once I Was Happy And Had A Good Wife

Melody -

1. Once I was happy and had a good wife
I had enough money to last me for life
Then I met with a gal and we went on a spree
She taught me smokin' and drinkin' whiskee.
Refrain:

2. Cigarettes are a blight on the whole human race
A man is a monley with one in his face;
Take warning dear friend, take warning dear brother
A fire's on one end, a fools on the t'other.
Refrain:
3. And now good people, I'm broken with faith
The lines on my face make a well written page
I'm weavin' this story - how sadly but true
On women and whiskey and what they can do.
Refrain:

4. Wild the cross at the head of my grave
For women and whiskey here lies a poor slave.
Take warnin' poor stranger, take warnin' dear friend
In wide clear letters this tale of my end.
Refrain:

Refrain:
Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane;
Cigarettes, whiskey and wild wild women
They'll drive you crazy, they'll drive you insane;
