Slow Ride

She takes her time when it's time to get ready

Always has her way

And always leaves me waiting by the phone

She told me more than once she has to take it slow

And I said okay

But lately I've been sleeping all alone

I'm not breaking up inside

I'm just too proud to moan

Baby, please come home

I feel a little lucky so I try to play it cool

I think she laughs inside

With the words that burn like fire in my mouth

I try to be the man like I got the master plan, night out on the town

Dance and drink and we can turn it out

Maybe it's how your body moves, I just don't know

Maybe it's just the way you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Ask me why I play myself, play myself for a fool

I swore that I would do most anything

Walk a mile just to see her smile

Walk a mile just to rock for a while

Baby, I'm thinking with my ding-a-ling

I've been doing some drinking

And I just don't know

Baby, it's just the way you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

But sitting on the verge of tears does not become my twenty-two years

You took my shame, and you took my pride

Now you gonna take me for a slow ride, but

Waiting, waiting by the phone

I got the words that burn like fire in my mouth

Come on down reggae style

Wind up your body like a bassline wild

Drink and dance and we can turn it out

Oh, I'm not going crazy but I just don't know

Maybe it's just the way you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow

Maybe 'cause you move so slow
