Lyrics:

I
Well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well, well
Well, well, well
Hush your mouth, won't you babe

I was slippin into darkness (hold me)
When they took my friend away (my Lord)
I was slippin into darkness
When they took, when they took my friend away
You know he loved to drink good whisky
Woah-oh-oh-oh
While laughing at the moon

Slippin' into darkness

Take my mind beyond the dreams
I was slippin' into darkness, yeah

Take my mind beyond the dreams

Where I talk to my brother, oh-oh-oh
Who never said their name

Slippin' into darkness, yeah

All my troubles though I choose

I was slippin into darkness, yes

All my troubles though I choose
I got a wife and a baby, yeah-yeah
Woh oh oh oh
Now my love hath gained this fame, yeah
Slippin into darkness, yeah

When I heard my mother say
I was slippin' into darkness

When I heard my mother say
(Hey, what'd she say, what'd she say)

You been slippin' into darkness, oh-oh-oh
Pretty soon you're gonna pay, yeah
