Lemme Slide Songtext
von Brian Setzer

I went out last night for a midnight drive
Next thing you know, I′m doing a hundred and five
Police man pulls up by my side
Lemme slide, man, lemme slide

I ran out of money, I ran out of gas
There's a little station by the underpass
I explained to the man, "I ain′t got no cash
Lemme slide, man, lemme slide"

It ain't that I ain't got the fundamentals
Yeah, you got them
I just can′t seem to pay my incidentals
You ain′t got them


I told a pretty gal I was a rock and roll singer
She was good-looking, man, a real humdinger
But I didn't see the wedding ring on her finger
Lemme slide, man, lemme slide

It′s such a compromising situation
Yes, it is
I think I'll leave and take a paid vacation
Yeah, you wish

When I got home, she said, "Where you been?"
I said, "Working and slaving just to pay the rent"
I′ll be sleeping in the dog house again
Lemme slide, man, lemme slide

Lemme slide
