Slow Ride

She takes her time when it's time to get ready Always has her way Always leaves me waiting by the phone She told me more than once to take it slow And I said okay But lately I've been sleepin' all alone Whoa, whoa I'm not breakin' up inside I'm much to proud to moan Baby, please come home And 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 Try to be a man like I got the master plan Night out on the town A drink and dance and we can turn it out Whoa, whoa Maybe it's how your body moves I just don't know Maybe it's just the way you move so slow "Hello?" "Hi! It's me" "I thought I told you not to call me here" "I know, I just really needed to talk to you" "Get a clue babe, there's nothing to talk about" Ask me why I play myself Play myself for a fool Swear that I would do most anything, hey huh! Walk a mile to see her smile Walk a mile just to rock for a while And babe, I'm thinkin' with my ding-a-ling Whoa, whoa I've been doing some thinkin' Now I just don't know Maybe just the way you move so slow Maybe 'cuz you move so slow Maybe 'cuz you move so slow But sitting on the verge of tears Does not become my 22 years You took my shame and you took my pride And now you gonna take me for a slow ride But uh, uh, waitin', waitin' on the phone You got the words that burn like fire in my mouth Come on down, reggae style Wind up your body like a ba*s line wild Drink and dance and we can turn it out Whoa! I'm not going crazy But I just don't know Maybe it's just the way you move so slow Maybe 'cuz you move so slow Maybe 'cuz you move so slow Flat love, movin' nice and low Slow ride, slow ride, slow ride
