Say, lady, you know
The one thing that we're missing
Please, girl, pay attentions
You see I'd rather show than tell

How you
You've got to lift up my emotions
But slow plus a four letter word
Is the one thing on my mind

(So right, so fine)
If I can wine you in my arms
(From left to right)
Slow wine

(So right, so fine)
Yeah, just let your body flow
(From left to right)
So nice if we could slow wine

Slow wine
(Slow)
Honey, keep it nice and slow
(Come on)

Slow wine
(Slow wine)
You got to use your body and soul
(Hey, hey)

Slow wine
Honey, keep it nice and slow
Slow wine
(Slow wine)
You got to use your body and soul
(Yeah)

While I, I got the notion
That you want to
Oh, what a beautiful thought
Slow wine by candle light

It would be nice, try to imagine
The fun that we'd have
Girl, you'd be the roller coaster and I'd like
To take a ride, it would be so nice

(So right, so fine)
If I can wine you in my arms
(From left to right)
Slow wine

(So right, so fine)
Hey, girl, all my body's yours
(From left to right)
Now it would be, now it would be
So nice if we could slow wine

Slow wine
Honey, keep it nice and slow
(Keep it nice and slow)
Slow wine
You got to use your body and soul
(Honey, use your body, keep it close to me)

Slow wine
Honey, keep it nice and slow
(Keep it nice and slow)
Slow wine
You got to use your body and soul
(Hey, baby)

Slow and the four letter word
Is the one thing on my mind
And it all should come so natural
That a child could learn to flow

No, I'm not talking sex
Maybe later but for now just flex
'Cause I've finally built up the nerve
To just slow wine with you, with me

So right, so fine, slow wine
Honey, keep it nice and slow
(It would be so nice)
From left to right, slow wine
You got to use your body and soul
(If you could use your body, keep it close to me)

So right, so fine, slow wine
Honey, keep it nice and slow
(Nothing wrong, you and me and slow, slow wine)
From left to right, slow wine
You got to use your body and soul
(Hey, baby)

Slow and the four letter word
Is the one thing on my mind
And it all should come so natural
That a child could learn to flow

No, I'm not talking sex
Maybe later but for now just flex
'Cause I've finally built up the nerve
To just slow wine with you, with me
