Slow Down

When I was a young boy

Well they tried to tell me

That I was movin'

Movin' way too fast

And I knew everything

About everything

But I really didn't wanna listen

To a bunch of old folks talkin' trash

So I got out on the highway

Pedal to the floor

Smokin' and drinkin'

And a whole lot more

But when they came to collect me

Out of that jail

They said boy next time

You get no bail

You better slow down

You better slow down

Woke up one mornin'

Ooh to a hunger

I moaned

And I began to twitch

Felt the need

For some lovin'

A little sweet somebody

To scratch my itch

Momma said I don't mean to pry

But I'm here to advise you

Seeds like to grow

When you put 'em in fertilizer

You better slow down

You better slow down

Doin' my own thing

I'm all grown up

Yes I am

Little bit older

But I feel like a young buck

I'm ridin' down the highway

In a brand new mini van

Wife and kids screamin'

Ooh God I'm a family man

I'm outta mind

Losin' control

I could leave tomorrow

But there ain't nowhere to go

You better slow down

You better slow down
