I'm a liberal backslider
I've been sliding about ten years
People ask me how I'm doing
And I calm from all their fears
I'm swearing like a trooper
And I'm drinking like a bum
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
I've been following these footsteps now
For many year gone by
But you always upset someone there
No matter how you try
Well the good things they're forgotten
If a bad thing comes around
Now all these stones are flying
They're gonna knock me to the ground
I am a liberal backslider
Sliding about ten years
People ask me how I'm doing
And I calm from all their fears
I'm swearing like a trooper
And I'm drinking like a bum
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
Well I take a stand on justice
And I take a stand on race
I'm gonna take me a TV'vangelist
And punch him in the face
I sing about the hope that's in me
And ask why the poor aren't fed
But if I don't toe the party line
It'd be better if I were dead
I am a liberal backslider
Sliding about ten years
People ask me how I'm doing
And I calm from all their fears
I'm swearing like a trooper
And I'm drinking like a bum
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
So I'll be asking for forgiveness then
Until the day I die
Though I can't be sure of what I've done
I think I'd better try
Well thank God you're not the jury
And thank God I'm not the judge
Here's to a bigger picture
Here's to the bigger love
I am a liberal backslider
Sliding about ten years
People ask me "how you doing, brother?"
And I calm from all their fears
I'm swearing like a trooper
And I'm drinking like a bum
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
I am a liberal backslider
Sliding about ten years
People ask me how I'm doing
And I calm from all their fears
I'm swearing like a trooper
And I'm drinking like a bum
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
I'm a liberal backslider
And it sure is a lot of fun
