SLIPPIN’ ‘ROUND (C) Ron Burres

MAN:     WHILE I WAS SLIPPING ROUND ON YOU, YOU WERE SLIPPIN’ ‘ROUND ON ME

WE BOTH SLIPPED UP WHEN WE BOTH SLIPPED IN, TO PLACE WE SHOULDN’T BE

I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE AT A POKER GAME, WHILE YOU WERE SICK AT HOME

IT MUST HAVE BEEN A PERFECT TIME, FOR BOTH OF US TO ROAM

CAUSE WE BOTH SLIPPED UP WHEN WE SLIPPED IN TOO THE LOCAL BAR

IN A DARK AND DIM LIT CORNER, I WATCHED YOU FROM AFAR

I WAS WITH A PRETTY FRIEND OF MINE, ONE I’M WITH A LOT

YOU WERE WITH OL CHARLIE, A FRIEND I HAD FORGOT

WHILE I WAS SLIPPIN ROUND ON YOU, YOU WERE SLIPPIN ROUND ON ME

WE WERE SLIPPIN UP, WHILE SLIPPIN ROUND, AND IT’S NOT TO HARD TO SEE

WE’RE SLIPPIN’ IN A REAL BAD JOKE, AND THE JOKES ON YOU AND ME

THE LOVE WE HAD IS SLIPPIN THROUGH, AND IT’S COSTIN’ ME AND YOU

                                             INSTRUMENTAL BREAK

WOMAN:

 WHILE I WAS SLIPPING ROUND ON YOU, YOU WERE SLIPPIN’ ‘ROUND ON ME

WE BOTH SLIPPED UP WHEN WE BOTH SLIPPED IN, TO PLACE WE SHOULDN’T BE

I WAS SPOSED TO BE SICK AT HOME, WHILE YOU WERE AT YOUR GAME

YOU DIDN’T KNOW I SAW YOU PLAYIN YOUR NASTY LITTLE GAME

I SAW YOU AS YOU SLIPPED OUT, SO SLICK AND FANCY FREE

YOU DIDN’T KNOW THAT I SAW YOU, SLIPPIN ROUND ON ME

I WAS WITH A REAL NICE MAN, HE PLEASES ME A LOT

BUT HE SAW YOU THERE WITH HIS WIFE AND HE LEFT ME LIKE A SHOT

WE WERE SLIPPIN UP, WHILE SLIPPIN ROUND, AND IT’S NOT TO HARD TO SEE

WE’RE SLIPPIN’ IN A REAL BAD JOKE, AND THE JOKES ON YOU AND ME

THE LOVE WE HAD IS SLIPPIN THROUGH, AND IT’S COSTIN’ ME AND YOU

THE LOVE WE HAD IS SLIPPIN’ AWAY AND IT’S COSTIN’ ME AND YOU

 (BOTH REPEAT LAST CHORUS)
