Big Sugar was a Canadian blues-rock band. The band, consisting of vocalist/guitarist Gordie Johnson, bassist Terry Wilkins and drummer Al Cross, officially formed in 1991, although the three musicians had already played together for several years as an informal jam band with members of the Bourbon Tabernacle Choir, and as a supporting band for Molly Johnson's jazz performances. (Molly Johnson and Gordie Johnson are not related.) After Molly Johnson returned to rock music with Infidels, she helped her former bandmates to secure a record deal; their self-titled debut album was released in 1991 on Hypnotic Records. Wilkins left in 1993, and the band recorded the album Five Hundred Pounds with the help of guest musicians, including Kelly Hoppe (also known as Mr. Chill) and Garry Lowe, who would subsequently become official members of the band.

100 Cigarettes Lyrics
Big Sugar
(G. Johnson/D. Gallagher)
Lord I smoked 100 cigarettes
Waiting on your call but it ain't come yet
I'm waiting for your footsteps in my hall
And I'm watching for this ash to fall
And while I'm counting my regrets
I'm gonna smoke 100 cigarettes
My porch light is on and I've unlocked my door
My eyes are red and my throat is sore
I check my mail and watch my phone
And I wonder when you're coming home
And while I'm counting my regrets
I'm gonna smoke 100 cigarettes
Yes, I smoked 100 cigarettes
Waiting for your call but it ain't come yet
I'm waiting for your footsteps in my hall
And I'm watching for this ash to fall
How much longer can I watch my own TV
Now that I've seen how white my shirts can be
One more smoke, I'll take just one more sip
Before I wipe your name right off my lips
And while I'm counting my regrets
I'm gonna smoke 100 cigarettes
Yes, I smoked 100 cigarettes
Waiting for your call but it ain't come yet
I'm waiting for your footsteps in my hall
And I'm watching for this ash to fall
And while I'm counting my regrets
I'm gonna smoke 100 cigarettes
Before I see the rising sun
I believe I'll smoke 101
