Lyrics

Let it Slide
Every now and then I reflect upon my life and realize there are a few things I ought to do.
Lose a little weight, spend more time straight, and maybe send off a late bill or two.
But then it occurs to me this thing called responsibility is really just a bit over qualified.
All things considered, the way I got it figured it might be best if I just
Let it slide, let the whole thing slide
Aw let it slide, let the whole thing slide
It's just too nice a day - to deal with this any way.

Reached across the bed to hold my newlywed and found she fled my sanction in the night
Now under normal circumstances romances such as these are often held in a rather dim light.
But then again it all depends upon the emphasis one chooses to place on one's bride.
I could go begging, pleading, tell her my heart is bleeding but it might be best if I just
Let it slide, let the whole thing slide
Aw let it slide, let the whole thing slide
It's just too nice a day - to deal with this any way.

I heard on Judgment Day the Good Lord comes this way to separate the bad folks from the good.
To keep the testifiers and cast the liars into the fire along with those who make deception their livelihood
But the way I gather it won't be no easy matter to un-scatter the heathens from the purified.
He might just change His plans, shake His head, throw up his hands
Fly back solo to the Promised Land, and as for man
Let it slide, let the whole thing slide
Aw let it slide, let the whole thing slide
It's just too nice a day - to deal with this any way.
