Please Don't Take The Baby To The Liquor Store Lyrics - Laughin' And Cryin' With Reverend Horton Heat - Reverend Horton Heat

Please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

It's not the kind of bottle he's been cryin' for 

Take our milk money and walk right out the door 

But please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

Don't need tequila candy with the worm inside 

It's hard for him to swallow, as well as our pride 

His dirty feet might dangle like it's some fun ride 

But it's not a grocery basket when there's booze inside 

Please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

It's not the kind of bottle he's been cryin' for 

Take the milk money and walk right out the door 

But please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

I searched our dusty pantry for some old saltines 

The kids say they are hungry and I know what they mean 

A jar of party olives and some grenadine 

Can't satisfy their hunger like those pork and beans 

Please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

It's not the kind of bottle he's been cryin' for 

Take the milk money and walk right out the door 

But please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

Don't store the whiskey bottles on the lowest lying shelves 

Easily accessible to tiny little elves 

Neighbors start to gossip when our children start to play 

Crown Royal bags aren't mittens on a cold winter's day 

Please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

It's not the kind of bottle he's been cryin' for 

Take the milk money and walk right out the door 

But please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

Please don't take the baby to the liquor store 

Liquor store
