Lyrics:

2010Writers: Michael Martin MurpheyAs the rain ruins my alibi,I''m down to tellin'' you my red-eyed mind.It''s not the sun bright path that called me from my home.It''s just that fine backslider''s wineMy mama sings out in my memory.Son, don''t take that black-eyed shine.Fight for your rights, but, son, don''t fight for right.Do not drink backslider''s wineInstrumentalBut I took myself for a kind and loving soul,''Til I found my face face down on a bar room floor.Crying, Jesus, what will they do with me?I cannot drink backslider''s wine no more.Mama sings out in my memory.Oh son, don''t take that black-eyed shine.Fight for your rights, but, son don''t fight for right.Do not drink backslider''s wine.Do not drink backslider''s wine.
