Lyrics
Backsliding
Backsliding, better watch your step
Backsliding, you might hurt yourself
It’s too late to turn back, back to where we came
Lately I’ve seen things that ain’t nothin’ but a crying shame
I said HEY! Did you see that? What the hell is going on?
Have we reached the end, or the dark before the dawn?
Backsliding, better watch your step
Backsliding, you might hurt yourself
We climbed the mountain, and we won the fight
We fought the power, and we finally got our rights
I said HEY! Are you listening? Can you hear us now?
We’ve seen the promised land they ain’t gonna bring us down. No
Backsliding, better watch your step
Backsliding, you might hurt yourself
Slide slide, slip and slide, ain’t gonna take me for a ride
Slide slide, run and hide, you ain’t gonna take away my pride
Going up and down and side to side we’re gonna fall right off the track
Two ways we can go, and I ain’t going back
I said HEY! Are you with me, Do you understand?
If we burn down the house we love we’ll never get it back again. Good God
Backsliding, better watch your step
Backsliding, you might hurt yourself
Slide slide, slip and slide, ain’t gonna take me for a ride
Slide slide, run and hide, you ain’t gonna take away my pride
Slip slide, rippin’ tide water's high and the river’s wide
Back slide mama cried “don’t turn back the hands of time”
