toadies – backslider lyrics
Loading...
bended knee
nine years old
waitin’ for
just one word!
i was thinkin’ of all the things
my daddy told me of
sin and salvation and
manhood 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!”
backslider!
backslider!
well i opened my eyes
and my daddy held me in his hands
i looked up through the water
and thought i saw jesus, and then
then
well i threw up my hands!
and i heard, amen!
and i prayed, sweet jesus
don’t let me become a backslider!
backslider!
backslider!
backslider!
yeah
