Lyrics
After a long sermon I'm heading to town
I can't get my head around what he's been preachin'
I wish I knew what he was talkin' about,
I knew I shoulda spent less time sleepin'
He said you're heading down a Slippery Road,
you're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
you're heading down a slippery road,
you're gonna find out, gonna find out
Another fight and I'm walkin' to town
She won't let me drive cause I've been drinkin'
She doesn't know what she's talkin' about
That's how I do my best thinkin'
She says you're headin' down a Slippery Road
You're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
She says you're headin' down a Slippery Road
You're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
It starts to pour as I get to the bar,
the music's loud and I keep sinkin'
Blonde hair and a low cut blouse
Bar tender give me what she's drinkin'
He said you're heading down a Slippery Road,
You're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
you're heading down a Slippery Road,
You're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
I hit the old man up for a loan,
the rent's due and the truck needs fixin'
He's says you'll have to go it alone,
this bank is closed and he leaves me twistin'
He said you're headin' down a Slippery Road son,
you're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
you're headin' down a Slippery Road son,
you're gonna find out, you're gonna find out
They think that I don't know, what it's coming to
They don't know how to save my life. Do you?
Well do you now?
Heading down a Slippery Road,
I'm gonna find out, I'm gonna find out
Heading down a Slippery Road,
I'm gonna find out, I'm gonna find out
