Granted, I was already too old by the time marijuana came on the scene-- but
it was my impression this referred to Bogart's habit of always having that
butt plastered in his lips....(like the stereotypical French workingman in
films of the 40s/50s)...so, you kept the cigarette/joint in your lips, it
was burning down, but you weren't actually smoking it.....?
