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
Chorus:
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 Cos now
Chorus:
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
Shes got double trouble
coming home
Sometimes I cry
I cry lord I cry
But my crying
never helps me
Chorus: (till fade)
