The Lyrics

This is a song about singer Amy Winehouse
Oh, I see her face everywhere I go
There on YouTube and even on the Late, Late Show
Emphysema, she's got emphysema
Oh I hear her voice, it's got so much soul
It's too bad that Amy does too much blow
Emphysema, she's got emphysema

Why, oh why does she have to heave her life away?
Oh, she's abused every drug she can get her hands on
And she's lost, Amy, you're lost

When you puff, puff, puff 'til you're out of breath
And you know you're one breath away from death
Emphysema, you've got emphysema

So you want that crack to go straight to your head
So you smoke it and cough until your face turns red
Emphysema, you've got emphysema

I'm coughing up the fives. Well, Amy wanted me to give this all ones, but I said No, no, no!

This song is a lot older ... The group Orleans performed it live in 1977! Check our Wolfgang's ConcertVault The King's island show May 20, 1977 Track 1,

In the 1970s we had a Ford that only had AM radio with one speaker in the center of the dashboard. The fidelity wasn’t very good at all. I had the station tuned to 610 KFRC San Francisco and the Chi-Lites came on singing their song “Have You Seen Her”…I swear they were singing “Emphysema”…I really thought that was what they were saying😬🤭
