"Slippin' and Slidin'" is a song originally composed by Little Richard. A cover version of the song plays in The Adventures of Super Mario Bros. 3 episode "The Beauty of Kootie." The cover plays as Mario and his friends fend off Cheatsy, Kootie Pie, and King Koopa's minions from infiltrating the Sultan's tower. This song has since been edited out in later airings of the show, being replaced by an instrumental of "Mega Move," which originates from Captain N: The Game Master. However, the cover can still be heard on the Super Mario Bros.: King Koopa Katastrophe DVD.

Lyrics[edit]

Slippin' and a slidin', peepin' and a hidin'
Been told a long time ago
Slippin' and a slidin', peepin' and a hidin'
Been told a long time ago
I've been told, baby, you've been bold,
I won't be your fool no more! (Oh!)

Oh, Malinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Oh, Malinda, she's a solid sender
You know you better surrender
Slippin' and a slidin', peepin' and a hidin'
Won't be your fool no more!

Slippin' and a slidin', peepin' and a hidin'
Won't be your fool no more!
