Just light up a lucky. Puff by puff, you'll see. L-S-M-F-T, L-S-M-F-T. Lucky strike means fine tobacco, and this fine lucky strike tobacco means a world of smoking enjoyment for you. Yes, puff by puff, pack by pack.

You'll like Lucky Strike. The Lucky Strike program starring Jack Benny with Mary Livingston, Phil Harris, Rochester, Dennis, Dan, yours truly, Don Wilson. Now ladies and gentlemen, let's go out to Jack Benny's home in Beverly Hills.

It's morning and Rochester is in the kitchen. Look what time it is. I better start getting Mr. Benny's breakfast ready. Now let's see. I think I'll give him some ham and waffles. He's crazy about ham and waffles. We're out of ham.

And I had the last six waffles. Let's see, what else? Oh, I know. I know. I'll fix him a plate of bacon and eggs with French fried potatoes. Uh-oh, can't do that. I had the eggs.

Come to think of it, I had the bacon and potatoes too. Well, I better take a look at the refrigerator again. I'll waste the boss with my refrigerator with electric light in it. This candle keeps melting the ice cube.

Uh-oh, what's this in the corner? Well, the boss is lucky. Here's some orange juice, some pickle, beets and milk. I'll pour the milk over the beets. If he eats without his glasses, he'll think there's strawberries and cream.
