Slip and Slide
Mama said you better watch your back
Be on guard for the sneak attack
Watch when they come up from behind
All the preemptive strikes that they'll try
They slip and slide, run and hide away
We would drink from long glass bottlenecks
All the carbonation, all the summer sweat
When we went swimming down at the crick
Come here boy I'm gonna show you a trick
I'm gonna slip and slide, run and hide away
Now the water is up to my chin
But I am scared to go all the way in
It's just a little push me right over the ledge
Send me running back to the water's edge
I slip and slide, I run and hide away
We'd gone so far we could not turn around
We'd gone so far that mama won't be proud
As I return to the water deep
And the questionable company I keep
Watch us slip and slide, run and hide
Don't be shy
There's lots of things we could try
Be on guard for the sneak attack
Watch when they come up from behind
All the preemptive strikes that they'll try
They slip and slide, run and hide away
We would drink from long glass bottlenecks
All the carbonation, all the summer sweat
When we went swimming down at the crick
Come here boy I'm gonna show you a trick
I'm gonna slip and slide, run and hide away
Now the water is up to my chin
But I am scared to go all the way in
It's just a little push me right over the ledge
Send me running back to the water's edge
I slip and slide, I run and hide away
We'd gone so far we could not turn around
We'd gone so far that mama won't be proud
As I return to the water deep
And the questionable company I keep
Watch us slip and slide, run and hide
Don't be shy
There's lots of things we could try
