Intro
Verse 1
Here I am walkin' down the street,
(Walking, walking, walking, walking, walking, walking, walking),
And the children... every-thing is so sweet.
(Wo-wo-wo sweet, wo-wo-wo sweet).
I'm doin' my best,
And I'm doin' it slow.
But there is just one thing,
I would like you to know.
Bridge 1
Ooh, when you wet it's slipper-y, yeah,
When it damp it crampin'!
If it's slidin' you will tumble down,
Won't want you on the ground.
Chorus 1
Caution; the road is wet,
Black soul is black as jet. (Did you hear me?)
Caution; the road is hot,
You got to do better than that.
Bridge 2
'Cos, when you wet it's slipper-y, yeah,
When it damp it crampin'!
If its slidin' up and down,
Don't want you on the ground, brother!
Break
Hit me from the top, you crazy mutha-funker.
Hit me from the top, you crazy mutha-funker.
Hit me from the top, you crazy mutha-funker. Eh!
Bridge 3
When you wet it's slipper-y, yeah,
When it damp it crampin'!
If it's slidin' you're tumbling down,
Don't want you on the ground. Don't, don't...
Chorus 2
Caution; the road is wet,
Black soul is black as jet. (Did you hear me?)
Caution; the road is hot,
Said; you got to do better than that.
