Lyrics: Unknown
Music: Unknown
Played by the Healy-Treece Band in the early 1980s with Bill Kreutzmann on drums.
Slipping into darkness
Takes my mind beyond sleep
Slipping into darkness
Well I heard my brother say
Slipping into darkness
Soon you got to pay
You got to pay
Slipping into darkness
Well I heard, I heard my mother say
I was slipping into darkness
Well I heard my mother say
You been slipping into darkness
Soon you got to pay
Slipping into darkness
When I heard my papa say
I was slipping into darkness
Well I heard my mama say, I heard her say
You been slipping into darkness
Soon you got to pay
You got to pay
You got to pay
Slipping into darkness
Well I heard my brother say
Slipping into darkness
Well I heard my brother say
I was slipping into darkness
Well I heard my brother say
You been slipping into darkness
Pretty soon, pretty soon you got to pay
