Pall Malls

Joe Bauer, my old pal, he smoked
Pall Malls, unfiltered, back in the late 1960s.
He died a long time ago;
He kept the smokes in the drawer
Of his desk at the high school.
He was a good man,
And I miss him still.
I smoke Pall Malls now too,
Although mine are filtered,
And "light."

Joe was a real man,
And I am a wimp.
