Please daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas.
A                            E   E7
I don't wanna see my mamma cry.

I don't wanna see my mamma cry.

 E                              A
Just last year when I was only seven.
 E                               A
Now I'm almost eight as you can see.
                 A7            D    Bm
You came home a quarter past eleven.
 A              E7                   A

Mamma smiled and looked outside the window.
   E                                  A
She told me: "Son, you better get upstairs."
                          A7                 D         Bm
But then you laughed and hollered: "Merry Christmas."
    A                E7             A
I turned around and saw my mamma's tears.
