Slow Down

I said slow down Slow down and live, my friend Take time, take time to understand The things, the things you hope to win Before, before your journey's end Slow down, slow down and try to do The things, the things that's right for you You know, you know The soul, the soul You save could be your own Albert Abernathy never spent a foolish dime Rising at the crack of dawn and working overtime You know, he never told me how much happiness he found Yesterday we laid him in the finest grave in town. I said slow down Slow down and live, my friend Take time, take time to understand The things, the things you hope to win Before, before your journey's end. Slow down, slow down and try to do The things, the things that's right for you You know, you know The soul, the soul You save could be your own.

I said slow down--slow down and live my friend Take time, take time to understand The things, the things you hope to win Before, before your journey's end Slow down, slow down and try to do The things, the things that's right for you You know, you know The soul, the soul You save could be your own.
