Verse 1
D 
I've known some
women in every state
G 
New York City to the Golden Gate
D 
I've lived with some, and buddy,
A 
I loved 'em all. (Yes, I did)
D 
But no one woman had a claim on me
G 
'Cause I  still had a lotta world to see
D 
And I sometimes stagger,
A 
D 
but sugar, I seldom fall.
G 
Then like a hungry man,
I went to Louisiana
D 
Where the lovin' and the
livin' was good
G 
Without a care to hide and just
D 
as satisfied as I could be.
G 
A lotta women and wine and
not a tie to bind me
D 
And behaving just as cool as I could
E 
'Til that long legged,
A 
sweet walkin' ravenhaired cajun lookin'
Devil put the sweat on me
G 
They call her Smokey,
she's a little bit-a evil
evil
D 
Smokey, right as wrong can be.
G 
Smokey, she could shake
the very devil
D 
A 
D 
G 
Smokey put the sweat on me.

G 
Oh,
D 
E 
A 
D 
my pulse is
a beatin' to the clickety clack
G 
Of this one-way ride ride that's
gonna take me back
D 
And my body's just a-breathin' in
A 
in that Mississippi River smell
D 
Well, my feet wasn't ready
yet for settling down
G 
But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around
D 
A 
And the longer I tried to fight it,
D 
the harder I fell
G 
And like a hungry man,
I went to Louisiana
D 
Where the lovin' and the livin' is good
G 
I'll get a brand new bride and be
D 
G 
D 
as satisfied as I can be
G 
And I  won't even mind the world
I'm leavin' behind
D 
Because I never really thought that I could
E 
'Til that long legged,
A 
sweet walkin' ravenhaired cajun looking devil
Put the sweat on me.
G 
They call her Smokey,
she's a little bit-a evil
evil
D 
Smokey, right as wrong can be
G 
Smokey, she could shake
the very devil
