Backslider — текст песни (Toadies, The)

Bended knee...
Nine years old...
Waiting for...
Just one word

I was thinkin` of all the things
My daddy told me of
Sin & salvation &
Manhood & 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
& pushed my head under
& said...

Son I am...
So proud
Just one word...

Well I opened my eyes
as my daddy held me in his hands
I looked up through the water
& thought I saw Jesus
& then...

Well I threw up my hands
& I heard, Amen
& I prayed, sweet Jesus
Don`t let me become a backslider
