Testo Alcohol

Here's a story about a sinner
He used to be a winner
Who enjoyed a life of prominence and position
But the pressures at the office
And his socialite engagements
And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition

But it turned him to the booze And he got mixed up with a floosie
And she led him to a life of indecision
The floosie made him spend his dole
She left him lying on skid row
A drunken drag in some salvation army mission

It's such a shame

Oh, demon alcohol
Sad memories I can't recall
Who thought I would say
Damn it all and blow it all
Oh, demon alcohol
Sad memories I can't recall
Who thought I would fall A slave to demon alcohol

Barley wine, pink gin
He'll drink anything
Port, pernod or tequila
Rum, scotch, vodka on the rocks
As long as all his troubles disappeared

But he messed up his life
Went and beat up his wife
And the floosie's gone and found another sucker
She's gonna lead him on to drink
She's gonna lead him to the brink
And when his money's gone, she'll leave him in the gutter

It's such a shame

Oh, demon alcohol
Sad memories I can't recall
Who thought I would say
Damn it all and blow it all
Oh, demon alcohol
Sad memories I can't recall
Who thought I would fall
A slave to demon alcohol
