I'd rather sit down
But I'm rollin' and tumblin'
I'd rather hold on
But I'm droppin' and fumblin'
I'd rather get a grip
But I'm slidin' and slippin'
And rather stay up
But I'm fallin' and trippin'
Cuz Lord, Lord, Lord
Lord, Lord, Lord I just saw a woman
Wanna buy me some shoes and start me a'walkin'
But I'm lookin' at her mumblin' and talkin'
Stumblin' over my feet
She's young and fine
And I'm kinda moldy
She's lookin' at me
Seein' some golden oldie
I got nuthin' to give
And she's bound to see it
She's a nine or ten
And I'm gonna three it
(ch)
Now I've been the one
Givin' out the gimme
I bet money
She can shake 'n' shimmy
But I gotta get gone
No time for delayin'
Don't wanna show
How I've been decayin'
