Lyrics
Listen to me brothers
Listen well
Brothers, we got something to tell
You can't run around bein' a married man
And takin' care of business very well
You've got to keep yourself together
If you dig on what you got
'Cause what you got can sho' nuff mean a lot
If you ain't takin' care of business
This you must expect
Love gets slippery when it's wet
You know hangin' loose can be outta sight
But hangin' loose? No, it just ain't right
You see it slippin', a-tippin'
Havin' fun ain't no good
Leavin' homework undone
You've got to keep your thing together
If you dig on what you've got
'Cause what you've got can sho 'nuff mean a lot
If you ain't takin' care of business
This you must expect
Love gets slippery when it's wet
If you ain't takin' care of business
This you must expect
Love gets slippery when it's wet
(Oh, come on)
Uh-huh, slippery, slippery
Love gets slippery when it's wet, oh
It'll slip away, yeah
Love gets slippery when it's wet (ooh)
Love gets slippery when it's wet
Slippery, slippery
Love gets slippery when it's wet (ooh, yeah)
Love gets slippery when it's wet (ow!)
Love gets slippery when it's wet (don't let your love slip away)
Love gets slippery when it's wet, uh
Love gets slippery when it's wet, uh
Love gets slippery when it's wet, ow!
Love gets slippery when it's wet (don't let your love down)
Love gets slippery when it's wet, ow!
Love gets slippery when it's wet
Love gets slippery when it's wet
