I am going to tell you a story or two
About you Grace having a cigarette or two.
You know it is bad for you oh yes you do
So take a step forward and ride it through.

Don’t have a cigarette it is decreasing your life
Stop huffing and puffing and start a new life.
Habits are hard to give a way
But think of your health and wealth today.

You can hang around me or with some good looking guys,
By not smelling of smoke and having sparkly eyes.
So save those dollars and cents and you will see
How life can change by not paying the tax fee.

Save, save, save, oh yes you can!
And Santa might give you a candy man.
Grab a nickapatch on your way through,
And have a great day from me to you !
