Lyrics

Ministers of religion

Have visited me many times

To talk about it

They say to me

I gotta leave it, I got to 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

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

Cause now I am a slave, a slave

I'm a slave

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

Cause she knows she got double trouble coming home

Sometimes I cry

I cry, Lord I cry

But my crying never helps me

(Till fade)
