[Verse 1: Lauren Watkins]
"It's been too long," why'd I say that?
It made you slide closer to me
That white T-shirt should be a red flag
I shouldn't let you buy my drink
[Pre-Chorus: Lauren Watkins]
It's already goin' too far
We know where it ends when it starts with
[Chorus: Lauren Watkins & John Morgan]
You and me, Crown and Coke
Six-string playin' slow
One backslide turns into tellin' our friends that we're
Back in love, they'll roll their eyes
We'll say they're wrong but prove 'em right
Wind up heartbroken all over again
We've been down this road
We both know it's a slippery slope
Slippery slope
[Verse 2: John Morgan]
Why can't a round just be one round
When we end up in the same bar?
Why can't I learn to just walk out
And not walk out with you on my arm?
[Pre-Chorus: Lauren Watkins & John Morgan]
Once it rolls, ain't no stoppin' it
Yeah, that's the problem with
[Chorus: Lauren Watkins & John Morgan]
You and me, Crown and Coke
Six-string playin' slow
One backslide turns into tellin' our friends that we're
Back in love, they'll roll their eyes
We'll say they're wrong but prove 'em right
Wind up heartbroken all over again
We've been down this road
We both know it's a slippery slope
Slippery slope
[Bridge: Lauren Watkins, Lauren Wakins & John Morgan]
It's all downhill from here, it's safe to say
I don't wanna, but I oughta just walk away from
[Chorus: Lauren Watkins & John Morgan, John Morgan]
You and me, Crown and Coke
Six-string playin' slow
One backslide turns into tellin' our friends that we're
Back in love, they'll roll their eyes
We'll say they're wrong but prove 'em right
Wind up heartbroken all over again
We've been down this road
We both know it's a slippery slope
Slippery slope
[Outro: Both, Lauren Watkins, John Morgan]
You slidin' in close (You slidin' in close)
Slippery slope
