I walked into this bar
And the man refused;
He said, we dont serve strangers
In blue suede shoes;
We dont give credit, and
We dont give way--
We have to think about what the people might say..
Uh, you know what I mean...
I said, sure, man

Oh, he gave me a smile that was sickly and wet,
And I offered him one of my cigarettes.
He took it, afraid that he might appear rude,
Then proceeded to sell me some second class food.
Nice guy - meet em everywhere.. .

He said, my oh my, I have suffered too long,
And this cigarette seems to be very strong;
I dont make the rules
I just get what I take
And I guess every rule was made to break.
You can take what you like, it wont hurt me
Cause Im just working for the company.
From the green cigarette, he took a long drag,
And said, I think Ill pick my travelling bag.

Im tired of cheating, and wasting my head
And filling the bosss bags with bread.
I want to get out in the sun and rain,
And feel the wind on on skin again;
The world is large, and Ive got time yet.
And, by the way, thanks for that cigarette..
Thank you very much.

You know, I feel like a new man
Yes I do, I dont know why;
Id just like to say
Thank you very much(indeed)
Its a beautiful day
I think Ill be on my way (right away)
Id just like to say
Thank you very much.
Yes, Im getting the hell out of here
Yes, I am - bye, bye.
Thats the end of the message
Thank you very much.
Bye bye...
