Don't sell Daddy anymore whiskey,

A D A
I walked down the street of a small country town,

And I passed by an old whiskey store,

I saw a little boy, his clothes so shabby.

I stopped and I stood by the door.

I want you to listen, for I am repeating
B7 E
The words that I heard the boy say.
[Chorus]
A D A
Don't sell Daddy anymore whiskey,

I know it will take him away.

We are all hungry and Mamma is weeping,
A E A
Don't sell him no whiskey today.

A D A
He treats us so good as long as he's sober,

And he tells us that he loves us so,
A D A
But a bottle of whiskey drives Daddy so crazy,
E A
I'm telling you this ?cause I know.

He beats my mommy and brothers,
B7 E
We have no shoes on our feet.
[Chorus]
A D A
Don't sell Daddy anymore whiskey,
E
I know it will take him away.
A D A
We are all hungry and Mamma is weeping,
A E A
Don't sell him no whiskey today.
