Please Daddy (donâ¡â¯t Get Drunk This Christmas) Lyrics

This song appears on three albums, and was first released on the Farewell
Andromeda album, and has also been released on the Rocky Mountain Christmas and
Country Classics albums.

Please Daddy, dont get drunk this Christmas
I
dont wanna see my Mumma cry
Please Daddy, dont get drunk this Christmas
I
dont wanna see my Mumma cry

Just last year when I was only seven
And
now Im almost eight as you can see
You came home at a quarter past
eleven
Fell down underneath our Christmas tree

Please Daddy, dont get
drunk this Christmas
I dont wanna see my Mumma cry
Please Daddy, dont get
drunk this Christmas
I dont wanna see my Mumma cry

Mumma 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 Mummas
tears

Please Daddy, dont get drunk this Christmas
I dont wanna see my
Mumma cry
Please Daddy, dont get drunk this Christmas
I dont wanna see my
Mumma cry
No, I dont wanna see my Mumma cry
