Prease daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't wanna see my mamma cry.
Mamma smired and rooked outside the window. She tord me, "Son, you better get upstairs."
Then you raughed and horrered "Merry Christmas." I turned around and saw my mamma's tears.

Prease daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't wanna see my mamma cry.
Prease daddy, don't get drunk this Christmas, I don't wanna see my mamma cry.
No, I don't wanna see my mamma cry.
