[Chorus: Rita Wilson]
Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 1: Rita Wilson]
I know a man, he came from my hometown
He wore his passion for his woman like a thorny crown
He said, "Delores, I live in fear
My love for you's so overpowerin', I'm afraid that I will disappear"
[Chorus: Rita Wilson]
Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 2: Willie Nelson]
I know a woman became a wife
These are the very words she uses to describe her life
She said, "A good day ain't got no rain"
She said, "A bad day's when I lie in bed and think of the things that might have been"
[Chorus: Willie Nelson]
Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 3: Rita Wilson]
And I know a father who had a son
He longed to tell him all the reasons for the things he'd done
He came a long way just to explain
He kissed his boy as he lay sleepin', then he turned around and headed home again
[Chorus: Rita Wilson & Willie Nelson]
He's slip slidin'
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
[Verse 4: Rita Wilson, Willie Nelson, Both]
God only knows, God makes His plan
The information's unavailable to the mortal man
We work our jobs and we collect our pay
Believe we're glidin' down the highway when in fact we're slip slidin' away
[Chorus: Rita Wilson & Willie Nelson]
Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
Slip slidin' away
You know the nearer your destination
The more you're slip slidin' away
