"Mama Smoked Cigarettes" lyrics

It was Evil Knievel, Neil and Stretch Armstrong
You needed a needle to play your favorite songs
It was Aerosmith and Andy Griffith
And Earnhardt's car would go the distance
Different time's not too long ago
But if you knew her now, man, you'd never know

That back before two pink lines she was young and wild and free
She used to be Miss Saturday Night back when I was just a dream
Well, she made it look so easy, so it's easy to forget
That there was a time that Mama smoked cigarettes

Well, it was hair bands and hair spray that could stop and hold up traffic
And a spring break vacation, you had to paper map it
That was back before her blonde turned grey
It was a Camel Light and a Zippo flame
Shotgun in my dad's jet black Trans-Am
It was right there in her left hand

That back before two pink lines, she was young and wild and free
She used to be Miss Saturday Night back when I was just a dream
Well, she made it look so easy so it's easy to forget
That there was a time when Mama smoked cigarettes

The day that she found mine, it wrecked her world
But I just had to remind her of the girl

Back before two pink lines, she was young and wild and free
She used to be Miss Saturday Night back when I was just a dream
Well, she made it look so easy so it's easy to forget
There was a time when Mama smoked cigarettes
There was a time when Mama smoked cigarettes
