Lyrics
Have a Cigar- Harry Henry Hann
Have a Cigar- Everybody is a star
Have a Cigar- Get your puffing up to par
Let me be blunt- You could smoke it right up front
A Questa del Rey- Just let a big man lead the way
They'll be sellin'- You'll be smellin'
Have a Cigar
Have a Cigar- Just don't smoke it in my car
Take it outside- Don't be stinkin' up my ride
Some smell ok- Just take it outside anyway
A lady might puff if she's really man enough
They'll be sellin', you'll be smellin'- Have a Cigar
Panatella- You're a smart successful fella
Fine and mellow- But you're teeth are turning yellow
Tiparillo watch those smoke rings start to billow
George Burns was the man
He just held it in his hand
Have a Cigar- You'll be blowin' lots of smoke
Have a Cigar- Watch that singer start to choke
Have a cheroot- Long and slender, kinda cute
Stick it in your mouth
Watch all your non-smoking friends go south
They'll be sellin'- You'll be smellin'
Have a Cigar
