[00:00.00] Bended knee
[00:04.08]Nine years old
[00:06.63]Waitin' for...
[00:09.24]Just one word!
[00:20.10]I was thinkin' of all the things
[00:23.55]My daddy told me of
[00:26.10]Sin and salvation and
[00:28.86]Manhood and dignity...
[00:32.73]All that time
[00:35.25]In the dark
[00:37.80]Just one word...
[00:40.32]Backslider!
[00:51.21]I remember the day
[00:53.85]I stepped
[00:54.78]Into the water
[00:56.70]My daddy held me in his hands
[00:59.88]And pushed my head under
[01:02.01]And said...
[01:15.75]Son I am So proud.
[01:21.03]Just one word...
[01:23.55]Backslider!
[01:34.47]Well I opened my eyes
[01:37.17]And my daddy held me in his hands
[01:40.44]I looked up through the water
[01:42.99]And thought
[01:43.53]I saw Jesus, and then...
[01:58.83]Well I threw up my hands!
[02:01.56]And I heard,
[02:02.88]Amen! And
[02:04.44]I prayed, sweet
[02:06.06]Jesus Don't let me become a backslider!

Bended knee
Nine years old
Waitin' for...
Just one word!
I was thinkin' of all the things
My daddy told me of
Sin and salvation and
Manhood and 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
And pushed my head under
And said...
Son I am So proud.
Just one word...
Backslider!
Well I opened my eyes
And my daddy held me in his hands
I looked up through the water
And thought
I saw Jesus, and then...
Well I threw up my hands!
And I heard,
Amen! And
I prayed, sweet
Jesus Don't let me become a backslider!
