Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
Just last year when I was only seven, now I'm almost eight as you can see
You came home a quarter past eleven, fell down underneath our Christmas tree
Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
Mamma smiled and looked outside the window, she told me, son, you better go upstairs
Then you laughed and hollered "Merry Christmas, I turned around and saw my mamma's tears
Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't want to see my mamma cry
No, I don't want to see my mamma cry
