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
'Cause 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, 'cause she knows
She's got double trouble coming home
Sometimes I cry, I cry, Lord I cry
But my crying never helps me
'Cause 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
