Question
some of the lyrics are:"slide off of them satin sheets, pour a good tall drink"
also:  "I must be good for something after all"

Answer
Hello Elaine,

That was "Slide Off Your Satin Sheets" by Johnny Paycheck from 1977.


What a beautiful mansion he built you
Splendor yes you got it wall to wall
And yet with all of that you�re still not happy
'Cause every time he's gone, I get your call

Slide off of your satin sheets, slip into your long soft mink
You know where to find my door and I know what you're crying for
Slide off of your satin sheets, slip into your long soft mink
You know where to find my door and I know what you're crying for

Baby, you once told me I was good for nothing
And you couldn't live on my dreams and crystal balls
His money buys you everything but my loving
So I guess I'm good for something after all

Slide off of your satin sheets, slip into your long soft mink
You know where to find my door and I know what you're crying for
Slide off of your satin sheets, slip into your long soft mink
You know where to find my door and I know what you're crying for


Glad to be of help. Cheers........Mel.

I have been hooked on Country music since first hearing Jim Reeves in the late 50s. Two of the greatest nights of my life were seeing The Mavericks and Reba McEntire live in London. I am more at home with traditional Country music, but am happy to try and help with any questions relating to songs up to 2000. Please note that I DO NOT have the same knowledge about country music videos or singers private lives.
