Slippin' and Slidin'
Album: Harlem River Blues
INTRO:
I shoulda learned better, old enough to know
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
Yeah it's a setback at best, a shameful show, baby
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
CHORUS:
Now I'm wakin' up feelin' bad again
I'm losin' patience with my only friend
Why do I try my luck, I should never touch this stuff
But it shouldn't make any difference anymore,
As long as I keep up appearances, Lord
I've been working too hard, I need some time at home, baby
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
SOLO:
CHORUS:
Darlin' I just need a little comfortin'
I ain't seen the sunrise since I don't know when, baby
Days gettin' longer, nights gettin' cold
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low, mama
Slippin' and slidin'
Peekin' and hidin'
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
