As the rain
Ruins my alibi
I'm down to telling you
My red-eyed mind
It's not that sun-bright path
That keeps me from my home
It's that fine backslider's wine
My momma sings
Out in my memory
Son, do not wear
No black-eyed shine
Fight for your rights, yeah
But do not fight for right
And do not drink backslider's wine no more
But I took myself
For a strong and loving soul
'Til I found myself
Facedown on this barroom floor
Crying, "My God
What has become of me?"
Do not drink backslider's wine no more
My momma sings
Out in my memory
Son, do not wear
No black-eyed shine
Fight for your rights, fight for your rights, yeah
But do not fight for right
And do not drink backslider's wine no more
No, do not drink backslider's wine
