Biografia:
Tex Williams (23rd August 1917-11th October 1985) was an American country musician from Ramsey, Illinois. He helped move rural and acoustic country music to dance-oriented mainstream pop Western swing. His popularity peaked in the late 1940s. Williams is perhaps best-known for this talking blues style; his biggest hit, the novelty song "Smoke! Smoke! Smoke! (That Cigarette)" appears in the hit film Thank You for Smoking.

I met an old man one morning, in an all night coffee shop
Am
he looked about as old as time and, the folks around there called him pop
D C
He said down beside me and winked one eye and grinned
G A C
Said he thought he knew me the minute I came in
Bm Em Am
he said I looked like his son, but said that couldn't be, you see he said he died in the summer of 43
D G D
And then he got to talking about time and how we waste it and he said
