Heres the story of a sinner He used to be a winner Enjoying a life of prominence and position But the pressures at the office His socialite engagements His selfish wifes fanatical ambition It turned him to the booze And he got mixed up with a floozie She led him to a life of indecision The floozie made him spend his dough She left him lying on Skid Row A drunken lag in some Salvation Army Mission Its such a shame Oh demon alcohol Memories I cannot recall Who thought I would say Damn it all and blow it all Oh demon alcohol Memories I cannot recall Who thought I would fall A slave to demon alcohol Barley wine, pink gin Hell drink anything Port, Pernod or tequila Rum, scotch, vodka on the rocks As long as all his troubles disappear But he messed up his life When he beat up his wife Now the floozies gone and found another sucker Shes gonna turn him on to drink Shes gonna lead him to the brink And when his moneys gone Shell leave him in the gutter Its such a shame Oh demon alcohol Memories I cannot recall Who thought I would say Damn it all and blow it all away Oh demon alcohol Memories I cannot recall Who thought I would fall A slave to demon alcohol
