The Campbells - One Is Too Many

I had my first cigarette when just a boy of twelve
And I've smoked a twenty pack a day since then
I've tried to quit a hundred times to stay a healthy man
But what's the point of living with no cigarette to hand
You know that one's too many to keep your health
One's too many, respect yourself
I try to fight it, but man it's tough
Cause one's too many, but one
Is not enough
I like a beer in the evening
When I'm hanging with the guys
And I've woke with a sore head once or twice
A glass of wine is nice
A bottles better there's no doubt
So pop the cork and pour a glass
And throw the bottle out
I know that one's too many to keep you dry
One's too many and I don't wanna die
I try to fight it, but man it's tough
Cause one's too many, but one
Is not enough
All these little vices
Are what makes life worthwhile
When I'm feeling down
Just one can make me smile
But one leads to another
Cause one is just too tough
I know that one's too many, but one
Is not enough
I've had lots of girlfriends but I have never wed
I hate to wake each morning
With the same face in my bed
I'm a red blooded man
And I like hot blooded girls
But it's hard to live with them
And so hard to do without
You know that one's too many to keep you sane
One's too many, but here I go again
I try to fight it but man it's tough
Cause one's too many, but one
Is not enough
One cigarettes too many
One beer is one too many
One girl is one too many, but one
Is not enough
