Lyrics Please, Daddy (Don't Get Drunk This Christmas)

(Bill Danoff - Taffy Nivert)

Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry
Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma 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
And fell down underneath our Christmas tree.

Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry
Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry.

Mama smiled and looked outside the window
She told me son you better go upstairs
Then you laughed and hollared "Merry Christmas"
I turned around and saw my Momma's tears.

Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry
Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry.

Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry
Please Daddy don't get drunk this Christmas
I don't want to see my Momma cry.

No,I don't want to see my Momma cry...
