Slipping and a-sliding, peeping and a-hiding
Been told a long time ago
Slipping and a-sliding, peeping and a-hiding oh
Been told a long time ago
I've been told, baby, you've been bold
I won't be your fool no more

Oh, big conniver, nothing but a jiver
Done got hip to your jive
Oh, big conniver, nothing but a jiver
Done got hip to your jive
Slipping and a-sliding, peeping and a-hiding
Won't be your fool no more
Hoo!

Oh, Malinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Oh, Malinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Slipping and a-sliding, pepping and a-hiding
Won't be your fool no more
Hoo! Hoo!

Slipping and a-sliding, peeping and a-hiding
Been told a long time ago
Slipping and a-sliding, peeping and a-hiding
Been told a long time ago
I've been told, baby, you've been bold
I won't be your fool no more

[I won't be your fool no more, mama!]
