Listen to me brothers, listen well
Brothers, we've got something to tell
You can't run around being a married man

And taking care of business very well

You've got to keep yourself together

And you dig on what you got
Cause what you got can
Sure nuff mean a lot


[CHORUS]
If you ain't taking care of business

This you must expect
Love gets slippery when it's wet


You know hanging loose
Can be out of sight
But hanging loose, no

It just ain't right

They'll say he's slipping, kick back

Having fun ain't no good
Leaving homework undone


You've got to do your thing together
And dig on what you got
Cause what you got can

Sure nuff mean a lot

[Repeat CHORUS 2x]


Oh, come on


Ow, ow

Ah ha, slippery, slippery


Love gets slippery when it's wet
Oh, it'll slip away, yeah

Love gets slippery when it's wet
Woo hoo hoo


Love gets slippery when it's wet
Slippery, slippery
Love gets slippery when it's wet

Woo hoo hoo, yeah

Slippery when it's wet

Ow, take care of business
Love gets slippery when it's wet
Don't let your love slip away


Love gets slippery when it's wet
Ah, come on, yeah

Love gets slippery when it's wet
Uh come on and say now


Love gets slippery when it's wet, ow
Love gets slippery when it's wet
Don't lose your doubt, yeah, whoa


Love gets slippery when it's wet
Ow, no way to stop it...
