She Only Smokes When She Drinks Lyrics

So you lit her cigarette, you're feelin' pretty good
You think you've got a shot, most girls you probably would
Yeah, this is that kind of place but she ain't that kind of girl
You're readin' it all wrong, let me tell you about her

She only smokes when she drinks, she only drinks now and then
Now and then when she's tired of bein' let down by men
You can give her a light but it's not what you think
Everybody knows she only drinks alone
And she only smokes when she drinks

Did you ask her to dance? Let me guess, she told you no
Got to take her some place quiet and see how far that goes
Oh, don't take it all that hard when she smiles and turns you down
For a complicated girl, she ain't that hard to figure out

She only smokes when she drinks, she only drinks now and then
And now and then when she's tired of bein' let down by men
You can give her a light but it's not what you think
Everybody knows she only drinks alone
And she only smokes when she drinks

She only smokes when she drinks, she only drinks now and then
Now and then when she's tired of bein' let down by men
You can give her a light but it's not what you think
Everybody knows she only drinks alone
And she only smokes when she drinks
Yeah, that's right
