Lord, I smoke, smoke, smoke
Smoke two packs a day
Only thing it's doin' to me
Is fadin' my life away
That's why, I'm gonna do what I gotta do, oh yeah
Well, I done made up my mind
I'm gonna cut this smokin' or lose, oh yeah
Lord, I go out and have a drink
Go to the cigarette machine
I don't seem to help it
'Cause I'm addicted to the nicotine
That's why I gotta do what I gotta do, oh yeah
Well I done made up my mind
I'm gonna cut this smokin' or lose
Now I don't care what ya smoke
Now it could be cigarettes or it could be killer dope
Whatever it is now you better quit
Because it would take your life, bit by bit
Now don't hang in the streets
And run with the wrong gang
If you do your life can't be the same
You might think that's a good thing to do
But it they offer you drugs just say, "No thank you"
You might try it once
And if that's the way you feel
When you get that habit
You gotta rob and steal
So never think that is
The way to go
If they offer you drugs
Just please say "No"
I want to tell all you children
You better shake this curse
Never use cocaine
'Cause it's just as bad or worse
That's why, you better do what you gotta do, oh yeah
Well then make up your mind
If you can touch that stuff or lose, oh yeah
Lord, you better give it up
(Give it on up)
Don't waste no time
(Give it on up)
You better listen to me now baby
(Give it on up)
'Cause you might be dyin'
(Give it on up)
Better give it on up
(Give it on up)
Just give it on up
(Give it on up)
Just make up your mind now
(Give it on up)
Darlin' don't use the stuff
(Give it on up)
Better give it on up
(Give it on up)
That's the way to go
(Give it on up)
If they offer you drugs, darlin'
(Give it on up)
Will you please say, "No"
(Give it on up)
Just give it on up
(Give it on up)
Just give it on up
(Give it on up)
Better give it on up
Fading:
(Give it on up)
Better give it on up
(Give it on up)
Better give it on up, darlin', darlin'
(Give it on up)
Don't use the stuff
(Give it on up)
Just give it on up
(Give it on up)
