Smoke Rings Lyrics - Here Comes Earl - Earl Hines

Where do they go, the smoke rings I blow each night 

What do they do 

Those circles of blue and white? 

Oh! why do they seem to pictures a dream above 

Then why do they fade my phantom parade of love? 

Where do they end, the smoke rings I send on high? 

Where are they hurled 

When they've kissed the world goodbye! 

Oh! I'd give my life to laugh at this strife below 

I'd be a king I'd follow each ring I blow 

Puff puff puff puff your cares away 

Puff puff puff night and day 

Blow blow them into air silky little rings 

Blow, blow them ev'ry where give your troubles wings 

What do they tell and what is the spell they cast 

Some of them fall and seem to recall the past 

But most of them rise away to the skies of blue 

Oh little smoke rings I love
