BACKSLIDER

 

Lyrics written by Joe Richardson and Buddy Forsythe

 

 

Backslider, Backslider, headin' for hell

Caught in a landslide, pure 'caine trail

Paleface, no trace, hidin' from the man

Starin' at the mirror with a gun in your hand

 

Backslider, Backslider, lost in pain

Can't slay the dragon when he's runnin' through your veins

Noddin' out, no doubt, hidin' from the man

Starin' at the mirror with a gun in your hand

 

Backslider, Backslider, sinkin' on down

Like a rooster in a rainstorm, you gon' drown

Juice head, 'bout dead, hiding from the man
