Nazareth - Demon Alcohol Lyrics
Hard times comin? so the messenger saidBetter guard your liquor like your own homesteadTook it under cover, then we took it undergroundIn temptation, we had another roundGovernor came, bout eleven or twelveUnder so much pressure,couldnt help himselfWord got out to the national guardSpread like a fire in a lumber yardSaddle up boys,and call up the missionA hundred strong in the providence hallPray boys for the prohibitionDamn that demon alcoholCavalry came, and we were tumblin? diceWouldnt let them in cos they wouldnt ask niceDrank to the health of friends and foeThanks to the lord, but he never did showSecond wind gone as the second wave cameManned in command, in the presidents nameKept at bay, kept knockin? at the doorCouldnt care less cos we all wanted moreSaddle up boys and call up the missionA hundred strong in the providence hallPray boys for the prohibitionDamn that demon alcoholDried up supplies till the morning sunNever realized where it all couldve goneList up boys, its plain to seeHell is merely sobrietySaddle up boys and call up the missionA hundred strong in the providence hallPray boys for the prohibitionDamn that demon alcoholSaddle up boys and call up the missionA hundred strong in the providence hallPray boys for the prohibitionDamn that demon alcoholThe saddle up, boysYou better pray, boysSaddle up, boysYou better pray, boysDamn that demon alcohol.(rankin.....polygram songs)Published by nazareth (dunfermline) ltd.Copyright 1994 polydor gmbh, hamburg
