Good morning, my darling. I'm telling you this to let you know that I'm sorry, you see
The tears of sorrow won't do you no good
I'd be your doctor if only I could
What do you want from the liquor store?
Something sour or something sweet. I'll buy you all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
I'd swim the ocean or the deepest canal to get to you darling just to make you well
There's no place on earth. I would hasten to go to cool the fever this I want you to know
What do you want from the liquor store?
Something sour or something sweet. I'll buy you all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
If only the doctor would hurry and show there's quite a few places I know we could go
I was okay, but these words from you
Stayed in you sick and made me sick, too
What do you want from the liquor store?
Something sour or something sweet. I'll buy you all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
Promise me darling that you won't die. I'll get all the medicine money can buy
Stick with me, baby. Hold on and fight
Take a good rest. I won't prolong the flight
What do you want from the liquor store?
Something sour or something sweet. I'll buy you all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
What do you want from the liquor store?
Something sour or something sweet. I'll buy you all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
