Slippin' And Slidin'

Slippin' And Slidin'

(album: Harlem River Blues - 2010)

I shoulda learned better
I'm old enough to know
Slipping and sliding, feeling low

Yeah it's a sit back at best
A shame for sure, babe
Slipping and sliding, feeling low

Now I'm waking up feeling 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 working too hard
I need some time at home
Slipping and sliding, and feeling low

Darling I just need a little company
I ain't seen the sunrise since I don't know when
Days getting longer, nights getting cold
Slipping and sliding, feeling low
I'm a slipping and sliding, peeking and hiding
I'm slipping and sliding, feeling low
