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 the socialite engagements And his selfish wife's fanatical ambition It turned him to the booze And he got mixed up with a floozy And she led him to a life of indecision The floozy made him spend his dough And left him lying on Skid Row A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission It's such a shame Oh, demon alcohol SongtexteSad memories I can't recall Who thought I would say Damn it all Blow it all Oh demon alcohol 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 the troubles disappear He messed up his life when he beat up his wife The floozy's gone and found another sucker She'll turn him to the drink She'll 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 cannot recall Who thought I would fall A slave to demon alcohol.
