Little Feat - Easy To Slip Lyrics






It's so easy to slip
It's so easy to fall
And let your memory drift
And do nothin' at all
All the love that you missed
All the people that you can't recall
Do they really exist at all

Well my whole world seems so cold today
All the magics's gone away
And our time together melts away
Like the sad melody I play

Well I don't want to drift forever
In the shadow of your leaving me
So I'll light another cigarette
And try to remember to forget

It's so easy to slip
It's so easy to fall
And let your memory drift
And do nothin' at all
All the love that you missed
All the people that you can't recall
Do they really exist at all

Little Feat Easy To Slip Comments
  1. J.... ....

    Long time back, hired this song as a marital counselor - Well I mean after screwing up one time too many, I scribbled the lyrics onto paper & mailed to my girlfriend, who'd told me, "Not this this time, buddy; this time's the last time."


    She sent me back her own letter, with that hint of perfume onnit like all the others had had, & I smiled to myself before slicing open the envelope. Me & cats nine live each. ;-)


    Its words were a cat's too alright, Brother Ray Charles' ... "Hit the road Jack, and dontcha come back no more no more no more no more."



    She broke my heart but thru my tears left me laughing ... Wherever you are baby, ... peace & love.
    And I'll always love this song.

  2. T.... ....

    This song is an eastern/western. You tell that LG studied with Ravi Shankar. There are sitar like licks in the song. The tablas accent those notes. Combine that with the lyrical content, "do they really exist at all". LG smiling like a guru.

  3. R.... S....

    It's easy to slip, especially on a banana peel.

  4. M.... P....

    Damn Lowell.

    I think this may of been your best piece of work .

    Outside of Shakedown Street maybe

  5. J.... W....

    83 bobby and the midnites version is the truth.

  6. g.... R....

    I love little Feat since 1976 neve slipped back! My memory drifts on forever! Hoy Hoy! Lisner was the most loving place ever!

  7. H.... L....

    My favourite Feat-Works since the beginning are "LF" and "Sailin' Shoes". Stunning Opener for that Hot Biscuit!!! But: FORGET about the DOUBLEheaded Broome and DON'T FORGET to fuck R.E.!!!

  8. m.... ....

    A couple of The Mothers set out on their own & did well. Real well, actually.

  9. M.... C....

    I thought I remember reading that Lowell didn’t like to play this song live. I wonder why—it’s one of their best. No voice but his can capture such grit and wistfulnesses at the same time.

  10. S.... C....

    Not sure how this didn't make it onto their best of album!

  11. R.... P....

    Best slide player I ever heard! Taught bonnie! Mentor to jackson, emmy, Warren and many more. The man with two first names RULES IN ROCK&ROLL HEAVEN.

    It's so easy to slip
    It's so easy to fall
    And let your memory drift
    And do nothin' at all
    All the love that you missed
    All the people that you can't recall
    Do they really exist at all

    Well my whole world seems so cold today
    All the magics's gone away
    And our time together melts away
    Like the sad melody I play

    Well I don't want to drift forever
    In the shadow of your leaving me
    So I'll light another cigarette
    And try to remember to forget

    It's so easy to slip
    It's so easy to fall
    And let your memory drift
    And do nothin' at all
    All the love that you missed
    All the people that you can't recall
    Do they really exist at all

    T/y the lyrics - some songs I sing (in the shower anyway ;-) change the lyrics to, this beautiful one too.
    I go w/ "...
    Well I don't want to dream forever
    of the shadow of you leaving me.
    Always thought those the words before finally learning the actuals.
    Still, mine leave a nice noir feel in my mind - always has and believe me the nightmare of many times many years over.

  13. K.... B....

    No matter how many cigarettes one smokes, this band and song are unforgettable.

  14. P.... L....

    One of the BEST American bands ever!

    P.... L....

    Patrick Lenehan right

    P.... L....

    Not one of the best. THE best!

    P.... L....

    Discerning deciples concur, Patrick

  15. t.... j....

    its so easy to slip its so easy to fall back into those places you thought you left behind all those things you thought you had put away for good!

  16. L.... C....

    Been loving this group for the last 40 years; as an old hippie, they are as essential to life as breath and food and water. Miss you, Lowell George - the universe loves you.

    L.... C....

    I hear ya. I'm the only one I know with all of their first 7 albums, and I've had them since they came out new. Got friends who've never heard of them, and they're as old as I am. How can that be? Happy to be able to say I saw them live before Lowell left us. Best damn concert I've ever been to, and I've seen some big names. Nothing else like 'em.

    L.... C....

    I was to see them in concert - it was about 2 months before Lowell George left us for a little higher ground...unfortunately, forces worked against me, and I didn't make the concert....still mourning that to this day....friends of mine who haven't heard Little Feat have enjoyed listening to them while in my home....feats don't fail me now!

    12.000+ views and only 84 likes? Criminal.

  18. k.... ....

    My greatest joy was cruising Tower Records in the 70s with my $5.00 weekly allowance and letting fate strike. This album caught my eye when I was 16. I've never looked back. 1314. Miss you Lolo.
