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.
