I shoulda learned better I'm old enough to know Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low Yeah it's a sit back at best A shame for sure, babe Slipping and slidin', feelin' low Now I'm waking up feelin' bad again I'm losing patience with my only friend Why do I try my luck? I should never touch the stuff But it's shouldn't make any difference mama As long as I keep up appearances, Lord I've been workin' too hard I need some time at home Slippin' and slidin', and feelin' low Darling I just need a little comfortin' I ain't seen the sunrise since I don't know when Days getting longer, nights getting cold Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low I'm a slippin' and slidin', peekin' and hidin' I'm slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
