  A preachment, dear friends, you’re about to receive
  on John Barleycorn, nicotine and the temptations of Eve

G                    C          G 
Once I was happy and had a good wife
                                   D
I had enough money to last me for life
        G                     C         G
Then I met with a gal and we went on a spree
                            D        G
She taught me smokin' and  drinkin' whiskee

G                               C          G
Cigarettes are a blight on the whole human race
                                   D
A man is a monkey with one in his face;
G                           C               G
Take warning dear friend, take warning dear brother
                        D            G
A fire's on one end, a fools on the t'other.

And now good people, I'm broken with age
                                          D
The lines on my face make a well written page
G                         C             G

Write on the cross at the head of my grave
                                        D
For women and whiskey here lies a poor slave.
G                           C                  G 
Take warnin' poor stranger, take warnin' dear friend
