Backslider Lyrics

Bended knee

Nine years old

Waiting for

just one word

I was thinking of all the things my daddy told me of

sin and salvation, ? and dignity

all that time in the dark, just one word: BACKSLIDER!

I remember the day I stepped into the water

my daddy held me in his hands and pushed my head under

and said: "Son I am so proud" just one word: BACKSLIDER!

I opened my eyes my daddy held me in his hands

I looked up to the water thought I saw Jesus there

then, I threw up my hands and I heard a man and prayed

sweet Jesus don't let me become a backslider
