Slip N' Slide

(album: Rufus - 1973)

Band gonna play that rock 'n roll
Sound of the music gonna groove your soul
Band gonna do that slip 'n slide
Sound of the music gonna get you high

Now if you dig Chuck Berry and your head's into rock 'n roll
Come on down the road a piece
The cats are gonna burn your soul

[Chorus:]
And they all was a reeling
Well they all was a rocking
The place was blown sky high
Grandpa's sitting in the corner
Mixing his rock with rye

Now if you dig the dixieland and your heart's into rhythm and blues
Come on down the road a piece
The cats are gonna break the news

[Chorus:]
And they all was a reeling
They all was a rocking
The bass man drives it on home
Now if you dig the dixieland

Listen to that slide trombone

If you think I'm a bit old-fashioned
And you want to maintain your cool
The rhythm of the music is guaranteed
To make you out a fool

[Chorus:]
And they all was a slipping
They all was a sliding
The place was blown sky high
Now if you dig the boogie
The cats will blow your mind

Band gonna play that rock 'n roll
Sound of the music gonna groove your soul
Band gonna do that slip 'n slide
Sound of the music gonna get you high

slip 'n slide
slip 'n slide
