"Marlboro Reds" lyrics

First thing in the morning on her second cup of coffee
Said, "Girl, I need a smoke break"
Sitting on the front steps, talking through her cigarette
Life's a drag, you learn the hard way
What it is, what it wasn't
How she lived through her third husband
Looked at my left hand, when you gonna find a man
I said the day you quit those things
And she just laughed, grabbed the last one out the pack
She said...

One day everybody's gonna wind up dead
Between a heartbreak and a hard place, get pretty good at cheating death
I lose another lover and I just light up another and it ain't killed me yet, so
Good luck to the Marlboro Reds

It ain't my decision when it's time to go to Heaven but I'm ready when He calls my name
Might be a little late when I hit the pearly gates but I'm burning rubber on my way
Don't wanna go too soon, but Lord knows I ain't scared to
'Til then all I can tell you is

One day everybody's gonna wind up dead
Between a heartbreak and a hard place, get pretty good at cheating death
I lose another lover and I just light up another and it ain't killed me yet, so
Good luck to the Marlboro Reds

'Cause what doesn't kill you makes you stronger
I guess they must have made me live a little longer

Ooh, yeah
Oh-oh-oh

One day everybody's gonna wind up dead
Between a heartbreak and a hard place, get pretty good at cheating death
I lose another lover and I just light up another and it ain't killed me yet, so
Good luck to the Marlboro
Good luck to the Marlboro Reds

Good luck to the Marlboro Reds, mm
Reds
