I will not be your sweetheart
     G                   C
I'll tell you the reason why

My mama's always told me

To pass a drunkard by

Now young man I will tell you
       G                C
If you want my heart my hand

You better quit your drinking

And be a sober man

Go prove yourself be faithful
   G                 C
Go prove yourself be true

And sometime in the future
   G               C
Perhaps I'll marry you
