Ministers of religion have visited me many times to talk about it |
|
They say to me, I gotta leave it I gotta leave it |
|
It's a bad habit for a man but when I try to leave it |
|
My friends keep telling me, I'm a fool amongst fools |
|
Now I'm a slave, a slave |
|
I'm a slave, I'm a liquor slave |
|
I'm a slave, a slave, slave |
|
I'm a slave, just a liquor slave |
|
I have lost my dignity I had before, trying to please everybody |
|
Some say to me, yo yo, I look better when I'm drunk |
|
Some say, no, no, no, I look bad you know |
|
Sometimes I cry, I cry but my crying never helps me none |
|
'Cos now I am a slave, a slave |
|
I'm a slave, I'm just a liquor slave |
|
I am a slave, a prisoner |
|
I'm a slave, just a liquor slave |
|
Every night when I'm coming back home |
|
My wife gets worried 'cos she knows |
|
She's got double trouble coming home |
|
Sometimes I cry, I cry Lord, I cry |
|
But my crying never helps me |
|
Now I'm a slave, a slave |
|
I'm a slave, I'm a liquor slave |
|
I'm a slave, a slave, slave |
|
I'm a slave, just a liquor slave |
|
Now I'm a slave, a slave |
|
I'm a slave, I'm a liquor slave |
|
I'm a slave, a slave, slave |
|
I'm a slave, just a liquor slave |
|
Now I'm a slave, a slave |
|
I'm a slave, I'm a liquor slave |
|
I'm a slave, a slave, slave |
|
I'm a slave, just a liquor slave |
