Slow Down

Lyrics

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
