Este blog serve de suporte para algumas coisas que quero publicar, mas que não se encaixam no meu blog principal.
Letra originada da audição do video, pelo que pode conter erros (quase de certeza absoluta não se trata só de uma possibilidade, mas de certeza que cometo uma ou outra adulteração da letra - mas fiz o meu melhor)
Une, deux, trois, quatre
Diz que é uma espécie de magazine
Diz que é uma espécie de magazine
Nós vamos fazer humorismo
Recorrer sobretudo à pilhéria
Mas vamos também discutir
Mas vamos ter gente séria
Digamos...
Que vai haver variedades
E vamos dizer as verdades
À maneira de antigamente
Tipo Gil Vicente e tal
Diz que é uma espécie de magazine
Diz que é uma espécie de magazine
Escarneçer e afinfalhar
Mal dizer e achincalhar
Será um pouco isto que iremos efectuar
E volta e meia também vão aparecer gajas nuas

1947: “SMOKE! SMOKE! SMOKE! (THAT CIGARETTE)”
Written by Merle Travis for Tex Williams; the release not only saved Tex Williams’ waning career, but also became Capitol Records’ first million-seller. Travis later released his own version. These two are the most commonly heard versions, although Phil Harris also had a hit with the song.
Smoke! Smoke! Smoke!(That Cigarette)Now I’m a fellow with a heart of gold
And the ways of a gentleman I’ve been told
Kind-of-a-guy that wouldn’t even harm a flea
But if me and a certain character met
The guy that invented that cigarette
I’d murder that son-of-a gun in the first degree
It ain’t cuz I don’t smoke ‘em myself
and i don’t reckon that it’ll hinder your health
I smoked ‘em all my life and I ain’t dead yet
But nicotine slaves are all the same
at a pettin’ party or a poker game
Everything gotta stop while they have a cigarette
CHORUS
Smoke, smoke, smoke that cigarette
Puff, puff, puff until you smoke yourself to death.
Tell St. Peter at the Golden Gate
That you hate to make him wait,
But you just gotta have another cigarette.
In a game of chance the other night
Old dame fortune was good and right
The kings and queens they kept on comin’ around
Aw, I was hittin’ em good and bettin’ ‘em high
But my bluff didn’t work on a certain guy
He kept callin’ and layin’ his money down
See, he’d raise me then I’d raise him
and I’d say to him buddy ya gotta sink or swim
Finally called me but didn’t raise the bet!
–Hmmph! I said Aces Full Pal — I got you!
He said, “I’ll pay up in a minute or two
But right now, i just gotta have another cigarette.”
CHORUS
Now the other night I had a date
with the cutest little gal in any state
A high-bred, uptown, fancy little dame
She said she loved me and it seemd to me
That things were sorta like they oughtta be
So hand in hand we strolled down lovers lane
She was a long way from a chunk of ice
And our pettin’ party was goin’ real nice
And I got an idea I might have been there yet
So I give her a kiss and a little squeeze
Then she said, “Travis, Excuse me Please
But I just gotta have a cigarette.”
