Slave

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)
