Smoke Break
[Carrie Underwood]
Sheâs a small town hard working woman
Itâs time to make a living
Working three jobs, feeding four little mouths in a run down kitchen
When youâre never taking nothing
And doing nothing but giving
Itâs hard to be a good wife
And a good mom and a good Christian
Saying I donât drink
But sometimes I need a safe drink
Sipping for no harbor glass
Let the world fade away
Saying I donât smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag
Yeah I know it might sound bad
But sometimes I need a smoke break
Heâs a big city hard working man
Just trying to climb a ladder
First generation to go to college
Instead of driving a tractor
Never had nothing handed to him on a silver platter
Itâs hard to be a good man, a good son
Do something good that matters
He said I donât drink
But sometimes I wanna pop that tap
Take a swing and make the world stop
And watch it fade away
He said I donât smoke
But sometimes I wanna light it up
And when things get tough
Sometimes I need a smoke break
So hereâs to you
And hereâs to when the day gets long
Go ahead I understand if you wanna take a load off
I donât drink
But sometimes I need a stiff train
Sipping for no harbor glass
Let the world fade away
I donât smoke
But sometimes I need a long drag
Yeah I know it might sound bad
But sometimes I need a smoke break
When the day gets long
When the words are turning
When the sun sets
When you need to forget
Grab that cup
Fill it up
Sip it slow
And let it all go away
