[Intro]
Wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo-wo
Wo-wo-wo-wo, wo-wo-wo-wo

[Verse 1]
Here I am walkin' down the street (Walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'
Walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin', walkin'
Walkin')
And the children: everything 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

[Chorus]
Ooh, when you wet, it's slippery, yeah. Uh
When it damp, it crampin'
If it's slidin', you'll tumble down
Don't want you on the ground

[Verse 2]
Oh-oh-oh! Caution: the road is wet;
Black soul is black as jet. (Did you hear me?)
Caution: the road is hot;
Still you got to do better than that

[Chorus]
'Cause when you wet, it's slippery, yeah. It's slippery, yeah!
When it damp, it crampin'! When it damp, it crampin'!
If it slidin' up and down-a
Don't want you on the ground. Brother!
[Bridge]
Hit me from the top
You crazy muthafunkin'!
Hit me from the top
You crazy muthafunkin'
Hit me from the top
Crazy muthafunkin'! Eh

[Chorus]
When you wet, it's slippery, yeah. Uh!
When it damp, it crampin
If you slidin', you're tumblin' down
Don't want you on the ground! Don't, don't

[Verse 3]
Caution: the road is wet;
Black soul is black as jet. Black soul!
Caution: the road is hot;
Yeah, you got to do better than that!
