I'm a poor backslider in the pit of sin I try to crawl out. I slip back in Come on, Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again
Well the preacher told me hope was never gone I combed my hair with water and put my white shirt on One Sunday morning I put the family in the car dropped them down at church and went on down to the bar
Cos I'm a poor backslider in the pit of sin I try to crawl out. I slip back in Come on, Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again
Audrey left me and she tooks my kids I miss those children--I'm sorry for what I did When I get drinking I lose control When you lose your family it's like you lost your soul
Cos I'm a poor backslider in the pit of sin I try to crawl out. I slip back in Come on, Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again

Now the mill is failing, I'm on shifting sand I sit in my trailer and I wring my hands No children's voice, no woman's touch Just a whiskey bottle, some shotgun shells and such
Should not have let that woman get me so annoyed Should not of hit my girl; should not of struck my boy Should not of took off running like a turkey through the corn Should not of bought this gun and should not of ever been born
Cos I'm a poor backslider in the pit of sin I try to crawl out. I slip back in Come on, Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again

The preacher told me Jesus laid down his life for my sin Well I'd lay mine down too if I could do it like him Three days in the grave--that sounds good to me But I just have some problems with eternity
And I'm a poor backslider I'm in the pit of sin I try to crawl out, but I slip back in Come Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again
I'm a poor backslider in the pit of sin I try to crawl out, but I slip back in Come Savior save me--get ahold of my hand Please don't let me slide back in the dark again
