Danger in Drink

Author: John C. Newson Hymnal: Carols of Hope #192 (1906) First Line: Write it on the liquor store Refrain First Line: "Where there's drink there's danger" Lyrics: 1. Write it on the liquor store, Write it on the prison door, Write it on the gin shop fine, Write, aye, write this truthful line, Chorus: "Where there's drink there's danger," "Where there's drink there's danger;" Write it plain, o'er the slain, "Where there's drink there's danger." 2. Write it on the workhouse gate, Write it on the schoolboy's slate, Write it on the copybook, That the young may at it look, [Chorus] 3. Write it on the churchyard mound Where the drink slain dead are found, Write it on the gallows high, Write it for all passers-by, [Chorus] 4. Write it on our ships that sail, Borne along by steam and gale, Write it in large letters plain, O'er our land and past the main. [Chorus] 5. Write it on the Christian dome, Sixty thousand drunkards roam, Year by year from God and right, Proving with resistless might, [Chorus] Languages: English Tune Title: [Write it on the liquor store]
