[Verse 1]
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Been told long time ago
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Been told long time ago
I been told, baby, you been bold
I won't be your fool no more

[Verse 2]
Oh big conniver, nothing but a jiver
Done got hip to your jive
Oh big conniver, nothing but a jiver
Done got hip to your jive
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Won't be your fool no more

[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 3]
Oh Melinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Oh Melinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Won't be your fool no more
[Saxophone Solo]

[Verse 1]
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Been told long time ago
Slipping and a sliding, peeping and a hiding
Been told long time ago
I been told, baby, you been bold
I won't be your fool no more
