Whisky and Cigarettes

Blonde haired beauty
With a crack in her smile
She's been through more than you'd know
That blonde haired beauty
Has walked a mile
In shoes with no sole

She's got a lot on her mind
But you'd never know
She's got a lot on her mind
But all that will show

Whisky and cigarettes
Are lingering on her breath
Yeah, Jim Beam gives her time to dream
While the world turns its back on her
Time and time again

This blonde haired beauty
Knows just what she's worth
But the blonde haired beauty
Never gets what she deserves

Whisky and cigarettes
Are lingering on her breath
Yeah, Jim Beam gives her time to dream
While the world turns its back on her
Time and time again

And she turns back to fight
For what she deserves
She tries to demand it
But every time,
She comes up empty handed...

Whisky and cigarettes
They're the penance for no sin
Whisky and cigarettes
'Cause Heaven won't let her in

Whisky and cigarettes
Are lingering on her breath
And she curses Jim Beam for selling her a dream
That turned its back on her, too
