A Good Cigar Is a Smoke (1905)

A smoking song to go with all the drinking songs. words by Harry B. Smith music by Victor Herbert published by M. Witmark & Sons sung by sheet music singer, Fred Feild piano according to the sheet music 1. If a pair of blue eyes have deceived you And a pair of red lips said you nay Don't appeal to champagne, all its bubbles are vain You will only feel worse the next day Just forget fortune's snub and drop in at the club Where you know all the good fellows are There the tonic you're after is gossip and laughter You light up a long dark cigar Chorus: Puff, puff, puff, puff Watching the smoke a-rising Puff, puff, puff, puff Soon you'll be realizing That which the poet has written is true All love is a practical joke For a woman is only a woman, my boy But a good cigar is a smoke 2. When you find that your latest flirtation Is becoming too serious quite And you're getting too fond of a brunette or blonde Call a halt, lad, and set yourself right Love perhaps ends in smoke, but its rings are no joke They disolve not nor vanish afar They are put on to stay there, they won't float away there Like rings you blow from your cigar This song appeared in the musical comedy Miss Dolly Dollar. It is set in a mens smokers' club. The lyrics were inspired by a Rudyard Kipling quote from The Betrothed: "A woman is only a woman, but a good cigar is a smoke." ---------------------------------------------- Get the sheet music and MIDI at: https://www.sheetmusicsinger.com/a-go...
