20 cigarettes
And I lit me one
On that redwood deck
On Demonbreun
She was with her friends
Left 'em standing there
There was more than smoke
In that summer air
We burned two while she told me 'bout her hometown
She was drinkin' Tito's, said I better slow down
I was like, "Hell nah
I ain't drinkin' by myself, nah"
Said she loved my accent, so I kept talkin'
Reached for the pack on the table by my wallet
We tore off to light the night we had left
With 13 cigarettes
And I lit me one
With the windows cracked
In my old half-ton
Singin' Take Me Home
On them country roads
So I turned off on one
Then next thing you know
We had a beer bottle lookin' like an ashtray
Under that full moon, she was 'bout halfway
Naked in my truck bed
So I helped her with the rest
She was sayin' my name
Barely even knew it
We were both lyin'
Said we never do this
To the music of the wind through the woods
It was probably somewhere around 2:00
In the mornin' by the time we got down to
That lucky cigarette
Layin' on our backs
We were out of breath
We both took a drag
Blew it in the sky
She was gone like that
One hell of a night
One hell of a pack
20 Cigarettes Video (MV)
"20 Cigarettes" is a song by American country music singer Morgan Wallen, released on May 16, 2025 from his fourth studio album I'm the Problem. It was written by Blake Pendergrass, Chase McGill, Josh Miller and Chris LaCorte, and produced by Joey Moi.
The song uses electric guitar and opens with a sparser instrumental. A bass line and percussion are introduced during the second verse, before the bass is featured in a instrumental break in the bridge. The story begins with the protagonist possessing 20 cigarettes and hanging out at a bar in Demonbreun, an area of Nashville, Tennessee, on a summer evening. He catches the attention of a woman, who leaves her friends to meet him. They start talking, smoking, drinking and flirting with each other. They leave Demonbreun in the night, driving out of the city in his truck and singing "Take Me Home, Country Roads" by John Denver. They have sex in the truck bed and share their last cigarette, before the woman later disappears.
Billboard ranked "20 Cigarettes" as the 16th best song from I'm the Problem and commented the song's story was "smartly told". Reviewing I'm the Problem for Paste, Hattie Lindert responded negatively to the song, regarding it as among the "rompier, lighter fare" that "seem slightly stale amid a slew of sour-grapes songs" and adding, "For what it's worth, even '20 Cigarettes' is both a clear and inferior rehash of the bossa-nova-inflected sound that buoyed Wallen's unexpected 2021 hit '7 Summers.'"

20 cigarettes
And I lit me one
On that redwood deck
On Demonbreun
She was with her friends
Left 'em standing there
There was more than smoke
In that summer air
We burned two while she told me 'bout her hometown
She was drinkin' Tito's, said I better slow down
I was like, "Hell nah
I ain't drinkin' by myself, nah"
Said she loved my accent, so I kept talkin'
Reached for the pack on the table by my wallet
We tore off to light the night we had left
With 13 cigarettes
And I lit me one
With the windows cracked
In my old half-ton
Singin' Take Me Home
On them country roads
So I turned off on one
Then next thing you know
We had a beer bottle lookin' like an ashtray
Under that full moon, she was 'bout halfway
Naked in my truck bed
So I helped her with the rest

Barely even knew it
