I Wish I Still Smoked Cigarettes

[Verse 1] I wish I still smoked cigarettes Light one up and travel tim When a stiff drink and a whispered yes Was enough to light a fire, to feel alive Wish I could go back to those nights sometimes I wish I still drove a muscle car Horses rumbling under the hood Flying past the welcome sign under the stars Wishing I could leave for good, I swore I would Every now and then I go back to that neighborhood [Chorus] Wish I still did a lot of things I don’t do anymore When I didn’t know what wasn’t good for me But I knew everything else for sure I guess what I really miss is the freedom and The way it felt, the innocence That’s what I really meant When I said [Verse 2] I wish I still smoked cigarettes I felt more grown up then We were talking about where we gonna go Instead of talking bout where we’d been We’d ride around the lake and make those plans Still had the world in the palm of our hands We never had a chance, now and then [Chorus] [Verse 3] Wish I still smoked cigarettes Something to calm my nerves Wherever you are tonight You were better than I deserved Wish I still smoked cigarettes So I had something to let go up in smoke
