Bb   G               C
Do not drink   Backslider's wine
        G             C
As the rain ruins my alibi
              F                      C
I'm down to tellin' you my troubled mind
              F
It's not the sun bright path
                C
That made me leave my home
           F   G               C
It's that fine   Backslider's wine
Chorus:
          G                 C
My momma sings out in my memory
             F                C
Son, don't drink no red eyed shine
                 F                      C
Fight for your rights but, don’t just fight for right
            Bb   G               C
And do not drink   Backslider's wine

         G                               C
I took myself to be a strong and loving soul
               F                                C
'Til I found myself face down on the bar room floor
            F               C
Crying “My God, what has become of me
             F   G               C
I dare not drink   Backslider's wine no more
Chorus:
          G                 C
My momma sings out in my memory
             F                C
Son, don't drink no red eyed shine
                 F                      C
Fight for your rights but, don’t just fight for right
            Bb   G               C
And do not drink   Backslider's wine
        Bb   G               C
Do not drink   Backslider's wine
