Lyrics
SLIPPIN’ UP AND SLIDIN’ DOWN©2002
By Mary Lou Sudkamp, BMI / Chuck Crowe, BMI
V1
I knew I was in trouble
By the cold look in her eyes
I forgot about the date we made
And played cards with the guys
So when I got to her house
I was hopin’ for romance,
But when I tried to kiss her
She said, “you don’t have a chance!”
WELLLLL …
CHORUS
I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
She doesn’t want me comin’ around (changed)
With each step I take, I’m losing ground …
If it’s sink or swim I just might drown …
Yeah, I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
V2
I know it ain’t the first time …
I’ve made mistakes before
And I'm slidin' down from number one
‘Cause she's been keepin’ score
I never had good reasons,
But I always had good lies
But when I tried one this time
She said “this time it’s goodbye”
WELLLL…
CHORUS
I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
She doesn’t want me comin’ around (changed)
With each step I take, I’m losing ground …
If it’s sink or swim I just might drown …
Yeah, I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
BRIDGE
She sure knows how to make me blue
I'm sliding down from number one … and I feel like #2 …
ENDING CHORUS
I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
She doesn’t want me comin’ around (changed)
With each step I take, I’m losing ground …
If it’s sink or swim I think I drowned …
Yeah, I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
TAG Yeah, I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
Oh, I’m slippin’ up and slidin’ down
