Slippin’ and Slidin’ lyrics

[Verse 1]
I shoulda learned better, old enough to know
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
Yeah, it's a setback at best, a shame for sure, babe
Slipping and slidin', feelin' low

[Chorus 1]
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 this stuff
But it's shouldn't make any difference, mama
As long as I keep up appearances

[Verse 2]
Lord, I've been workin' too hard, I need some time at home
Slippin' and slidin', and feelin' low

[Chorus 2]
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
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low, mama
Slippin' and slidin', peekin' and hidin'
Slippin' and slidin', feelin' low
