Between the lunch and dinner rush

Kelly caught that outbound bus for vegas

We're all out here talking trash, making bets

Lips wrapped round our cigarettes

She always thought she was too good to be a waitress.

Well, we all say that we'll quit someday

When our ship comes in

We'll just sail away.

But we're just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah

We're just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah

Out here goin' broke

Hey yeah

We're just blowin' smoke.

Well janie got divorced again

Her ex-husband's in the pen

From two to five, five to ten and longer

Brenda's traded smokes for cake

Still hadn't lost that baby weight

And that baby's about to graduate

From college.

I'm just flicking ash

Into the tray

Tell them both it'll be okay.

But I'm just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah...

I'm just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah...

I'm out here goin' broke

Hey yeah...

Yeah we're just blowin' smoke.

We all say that we'll

Quit someday

When our nerves ain't shot

And our hands don't shake, yeah...

We all say that we'll

Quit someday

When our nerves ain't shot

And our hands don't shake.

Wipe down the bar, take out the trash

Light one up and count my cash

Swear I'm never coming back again.

I'm just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah

I'm just blowin' smoke

Hey yeah

Out here going broke

Hey yeah

Yeah we're just blowin' smoke.
