I work now mama both night and day you take my money bring it all away
But won't you save me some now won't you save me some
Don't give it all away now won't you save me some
Liquor shelf was really thin steal it from the white folks now and then
But won't you save me some now won't you save me some
Don't give it all away now won't you save me some
Up to my lips and down to my toes that's the way quarts and gallon goes
But won't you save me some now won't you save me some
Don't give it all away now won't you save me some

Went to the doctor and the doctor said don't stop drinkin' it's gonna kill you dead
But won't you save me some now won't you save me some
Don't give it all away now won't you save me some
Mama told me Papa told me too brewin' that stuff be the death of you
But won't you save me some now won't you save me some
Don't give it all away now won't you save me some
