Lyrics
Do not drink Back sliders wine
As the rain ruins my alibi
I'm down to tellin' you my troubled mind
It's not the sun bright path
That called me from my home
It's just that fine Backslider's wine
My momma sings out in my memory
Son, don't drink no red eyed shine
Fight for your rights
But, don't just fight for right
And do not drink Backslider's wine
But I took myself to be a strong and loving soul
'Til I found my self face down on the bar room floor
Crying my God what has become of me
I dare not drink Backslider's wine no more
My momma sings out in my memory
Son, don't drink no red eyed shine
Fight for your rights
But, don't just fight for right
And do not drink back sliders wine
