[Verse 1] Oh and my darling I'm telling you this
Don't let you know that I'm sorry you're sick
Tears of sorrow won't do you no good
And I'll be your doctor if only I could

[Chorus] What do you want from the liquor store
Something sour, something sweet
I'll buy all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more

[Verse 2] Swimming the oceans on the deepest canals
To get to you darling and make you well
There's no place on earth I'd hasten go
To go fever I want you to know

[Chorus] What do you want from the liquor store
Something sour, something sweet
I'll buy all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more

[Verse 3] Promise me, darling, you won't die
My gift, all the medicine money can buy
Stick with me baby, hold on and fight
Take a good rest, hold on the fight

[Chorus] What do you want from the liquor store
Something sour, something sweet
I'll buy all that your belly can hold
You can be sure you won't suffer no more

[Chorus] What do you want from the liquor store
Something sour, something sweet
I'll buy em all that you'll never come home
You can be sure you won't suffer no more
