i met a girl with a black cigar
and a salt lick in her hand
she settled down into a quiet room
and she started to strike up the band
she had a time gettin' down to work
with a salt lick in her hand
she ran right in and jumped into my lap
with a salt lick in her hand
she let me know what was on her mind
and said i want to play with your band
i took her home and she blew my
and now i'm with her all the time
and so it's been for many days and
as i sit and wonder where she's been
the girl i knew with the black
she bring the salt lick here again
she walked out on me yeah the other day
and i haven't seen her 'round 'til then?
