I walked into this bar and the man refused
He said we don’t serve strangers in blue suede shoes
We don’t give credit, and we don’t give way
We have to think about what the people might say
Uh, you know what I mean I said “Yes I Do”
He gave me a smile that was sickly and wet
And I offered him one of my cigarettes
He took it, afraid that he might appear rude
Then proceeded to sell me some second class food
Nice guy - meet ’em everywhere
He said, my oh my, I have suffered too long
And this cigarette seems to be very strong
I don’t make the rules, I get what I take
And I guess every rule was made to break
You can take what you like, it won’t hurt me
Cause I’m just working for the company
From the green cigarette, he took a long drag
And said, I think I’ll pack my traveling bag
I’m tired of cheating, and wasting my head
And filling the boss’s bags with bread.
I want to get out in the sun and rain,
And feel the wind on on skin again;
The world is large, and I’ve got time yet.
And, by the way, thanks for that cigarette..
Thank you very much.
You know, I feel like a new man
Yes I do, I don’t know why;
I’d just like to say
Thank you very much(indeed)
It’s a beautiful day
I think I’ll be on my way (right away)
I’d just like to say
Thank you very much.
Yes, I’m getting the hell out of here
Yes, I am - bye, bye.
That’s the end of the message
Thank you very much.
Bye bye...
