She Only Smokes When She Drinks - Joe Nichols

So you lit her cigarette

You’re feelin' pretty good

You think you’ve got a shot

Most girls, you prob’ly would

Yeah, this is that kind of place

But she ain’t that kind of girl

You’re readin' it all wrong

Let me tell you about her

She only smokes when she drinks

She only drinks now and then

Now and then when she’s tired

Of bein' let down by men

You can give her a light

But it’s not what you think

Everybody knows

She only drinks alone

And she only smokes when she drinks

Did you ask her to dance

Let me guess, she told you no

Gotta take her some place quiet

And see how far that goes

Oh don’t take it all that hard

When she smiles and turns you down

For a complicated girl

She ain’t that hard to figure out

She only smokes when she drinks

She only drinks now and then

Now and then when she’s tired

Of bein' let down by men

You can give her a light

But it’s not what you think

Everybody knows

She only drinks alone

And she only smokes when she drinks

Woah,

She only smokes when she drinks

She only drinks now and then

Now and then when she’s tired

Of bein' let down by men

You can give her a light

But it’s not what you think

Everybody knows

She only drinks alone

And she only smokes when she drinks

Yeah, that’s right
