Slow... like a Carolina sunset Like molasses dripping on cornbread Like the hot steam rising from a creek bed Slow... We're gonna take it slow Like sun tea brewin' on the back patio An old John Deere rolling down a corn row Or a Sunday drive down a dirt road Slow... We're gonna take it slow No need to rush we've got no place to go Don't worry baby cuz we're... We're gonna take it, we're gonna take it slow We're gonna take it slow Like a long swim in a deep southern drawl Or the heat from a summertime sidewalk Like a Friday at work watching the time crawl An echo ringing across the Grand Canyon The way a bonfire turns into ashes Like our shadows in the moon when we're dancin' Slow... We're gonna take it slow Girl just let your inhibitions go Don't worry baby cuz we're... We're gonna take it, we're gonna take it slow Slow... We're gonna take it slow Like your long hair floating in the summer breeze The two of us swaying on the front porch swing Like the clock ticks until you're next to me...
