Slave

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
