Demon Rum

My heart's gone cold and my blessed soul has turned from pure to black
Since I got stuck on the demon rum there's been no turning back
Adrift am I in a wicked tide and I fear my life will be done
I'll end up in hell if I don't break this spell and be rid of the demon rum

The demon rum's got a hold on me ever since I can recall
No mater what I try I seemed destined to fall

What hope could there be for a man like me with nowhere left to turn
A way to give up the draw of the stuff is something I'll never learn
Although I hate the very thought of my fate I cannot walk away
Like the barrel of a gun oh the demon rum will always make you pay

The demon rum's got a hold on me ever since I can recall
No mater what I try I seemed destined to fall

A single sip began my trip towards ruin and despair
Now no remorse will change my course my life's beyond repair
How could I know just how low this choice would bring me down
The demon rum began as fun now it's just a way to drown
