Intro music riff
Verse
She said she was going out for a pack of cigarette's
And it'a been going on 3 years & she ain't been back yet
I just thought the whole thing was another one of her jokes
But it turned out not so funny cause my baby didn't smoke
Chorus
What was a pack of butt's was a pack of lies
A little ten minute drive was a 3 year ride
So if your women says to you she's going out for a pack
You better ask her very nicely oh if she's comin' back
Intro Music Riff
Verse
I thought we were gettin' along as far as I could tell
The view from the catch everything looked real swell
I should have been lookin' for signs instead of that TV
Now it looks like the jokes the jokes on me
Bridge
After 3 years and I quit smokin'
And finally got myself calmed down
Me not payin' more attention
Was the reason she didn't turn that car around
Lead
Chorus
What was a pack of butt's was a pack of lies
A little ten minute drive was a 3 year ride
So if your women says to you she's going out for a pack
You better ask her very nicely oh if she's comin' back
And when your women says to you she's going out for a pack
You better ask her very nicely oh if shes comin' back
Music lick then end
