[VERSE 1]

       E
I've known some women in every state
 A
New York City to the Golden Gate
      E                                      B      B7
I've lived with some, and buddy, I loved 'em all. (Yes, I did)
     E
But no one woman had a claim on me
       A
'Cause I still had a lotta world to see
       E                      B               E    E7
And I sometimes stagger, but sugar, I seldom fall.

[PD-C HORUS]

             A
Then like a hungry man, I went to Louisiana
           E
Where the lovin' and the livin' was good
           A                                             E
Without a care to hide and just as satisfied as I could be.
         A
A lotta women and wine and not a tie to bind me
       E
And behaving just as cool as I could
           F#                                                
'Til that long legged, sweet walkin', ravenhaired and cajun-looking 
 B
Devil put the sweat on me.

[CHORUS]

                A
They call her Smokey, she's a little bit of evil
  E
Smokey, right as wrong can be.
  A
Smokey, she could shake the very devil
  E              B       E  A
Smokey put the sweat on me.
  E              B       E 
Smokey put the sweat on me.

[VERSE 2]

        E
Oh, my pulse is a beatin' to the clickety clack
         A
Of this one-way ride that's gonna take me back
        E                                                  B   B7
And my body's just a-breathin' in that Mississippi River smell
          E
Well, my feet wasn't ready yet for settling down
        A
But my soul kept tellin' me to turn around
         E                 B                      E   E7
And the longer I tried to fight it, the harder I fell

[PD-C HORUS]

            A
And like a hungry man, I'm goin' to Louisiana
           E
Where the lovin' and the livin' is good
             A                                           E
I'll get a brand new bride and be as satisfied as I can be
            A
And I won't even mind the world I'm leavin' behind
           E
Because I never really thought that I could
           F#                                                
'Til that long legged, sweet walkin', ravenhaired and cajun-looking

Devil put the sweat on me.

  E              B       E  A
Smokey put the sweat on me.
  E              B       E  A
Smokey put the sweat on me
        E              B       E  A
Awww, Smokey put the sweat on me.
