I'll Let You Slide

Oh, back to back and side to side

There's only music on my mind

Nothing to worry about but the beat

I wanted you to come and dance with me

But you wanted to stay home and watch TV

Oh, but when I got there, to my surprise

There was another guy looking in your eyes

I don't want, don't want us to fuss and fight

From right now till tomorrow night

So if you promise to love only me and be by my side

I'll let you slide

Oh, without a doubt, tonight is the night

That we gon' really roll when the time is right

And we're gonna carry it into the dawn

Oh, but where are you? Where can you be?

I've been waiting, it seems, an eternity

I took our favorite song from the record stack

It was, "Hey Jimmy Mack, when are you coming back?"

Well, I'm so disappointed you're gone tonight

'Cause your love is the spice of my life

But if you hurry back in the morning

Then alright, huh, I'll let you slide tonight

Up and down, pacing 'round, walking in my sleep

'Cause you've got a promise to keep

You've got to come back and love, love, love, love, love me right

I'll let you slide tonight

I can't wait till tomorrow, baby

Can't you come over tonight?

I can't get to sleep, my baby

Come and rock my cradle left to right

I tossed and turned and called you up (I tossed and turned, oh, yeah)

But there wasn't anybody home

It makes me sad, I need you bad

But I guess I'm just gonna have to wait until tomorrow comes

(Slide) Oh, I knew it, I knew it

How could you do it?

(Slide) It's alright, huh, I'll let you slide tonight, I'll let you

(Slide) Yeah, yeah

How could you do it? How could you do it?

(Slide) Well, alright, woo, I'll let you slide tonight

I hired me a private eye

To check up on your cool little alibis

And what he discovered was woeful to me

Baby, if you do intend to stay with me

Then you can't see the guys that I know you see

Come on, let's make up a promise, let's start anew

Let's take the morning off, I've got some plans for you

Making love by the moon can be mighty fine

But when the sun rises, so do I

So if you rock it to me in the morning

Then alright, huh, I'll let you slide tonight

Really missed you today, I was on the run

So wake me up when the morning comes

I think I'll dance to some music and groove on the party light

And let you slide tonight

Get up, ooh, let's love, baby

If you do it nice in the morning

Then alright, huh, I'll let you slide tonight

Get up, ooh, let's love, baby

If we do it twice in the morning

Well, alright, ooh, I'll let you slide tonight

Get up, ooh, let's love, baby

Be my sugar and spice in the morning

And alright, huh, I'll let you slide tonight

Get up, ooh, let's love, baby

If it's really nice in the morning

It's alright, huh, I'll let—
