[Chorus]
0:00
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
0:00
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up

Get back on my feet so I can tear shit up
0:20
[Verse 1]
0:24
Sometimes I don't know where This dirty road is taking me
0:24
Sometimes I can't eve know the reason why
0:32
So I guess I keep a-gamblin'
0:37
Lots of booze and lots of ramblin'
0:39
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
0:42
[Chorus]
0:46
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
0:46
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up

Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I gotta get up
0:59
Get back on my feet so I can tear shit up
1:05
[Verse 2]
1:08
One time, friends, I had a ma, I even had a pa
1:08
He beat her with a belt once 'cause she cried
1:16
She told him to take care of me
1:20
And headed down to Tennessee
1:23
It's easier than just waitin' around to die
1:25
[Chorus]
1:31
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
1:31
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up

[Verse 3]
1:52
I came of age and I found a girl In a Tuscaloosa bar
1:52
She cleaned me out and hid in on the sly
2:00
I tried to kill the pain, bought some wine
2:02
And hopped a train
2:05
Seemed easier than just waitin' around to die
2:06
[Chorus]
2:08
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
2:08
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
2:14
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I gotta get up
2:22
Get back on my feet so I can tear shit up
2:27
[Verse 4]
2:30
A friend said he knew Where some easy money was
2:30
We robbed a man, and brother did we fly
2:36
The posse caught up with me
2:39
And drug me back to Muskogee
2:41
Now it's two long years I've been waitin' around to die
2:43
[Chorus]
2:45
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
2:45
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I can't get up
2:52
Hey yo I'm slipping, I'm falling, I gotta get up
3:00
Get back on my feet so I can tear shit up
