Robert W Service - Pipe SmokerRobert W Service - Pipe Smoker
Work rating: Low


Because I love the soothing weed          And am of sober type, I`d choose me for a friend in need          A man who smokes a pipe. A cove who hasn`t much to say,          And spits into the fire, Puffing like me a pipe of clay,          Corn-cob or briar. A chap original of thought,          With cheery point of view, Who has of gumption quite a lot,          And streaks of humour too. He need not be a whiskered sage,          With wisdom over-ripe: Just give me in the old of age          A pal who smokes a pipe. A cigarette may make for wit,          Although I like it not; A good cigar, I must admit,          Gives dignity to thought. But as my glass of grog I sip          I never, never gripe If I have for companionship          A guy who smokes a pipe.
