SLOW DOWN -Lyrics Wayne Gillespie
(W.Gillespie/R.Grosser)
1) Hot wire the ignition and give it a rev
He’s the original petrol head
His tyres burn and his girlfriend screams
As her head flies through the window screen
2) Tagging trains on the Hurstville line
He’s got plenty of speed but not much time
He tags his name on a railway car
But he sticks his neck out just a bit too far
Slow Down (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down
3) He drives all night with a load of gasoline
His eyes propped open with Duromine
He takes the corner just a bit too wide
And the flames light up the countryside
4) He’s a Doctor of medicine he’s Mr Right
And his waterfront mansion it glows at night
He’s full of ambition and grandiose schemes
And his veins are full of Pethidine
Slow Down (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down
Bridge: There’s no telling what we’ll do
Wish I could spend more time with you
Always running against the clock
Once you start you just can’t …stop.
Harmonica Solo
5) The air is electricity when she’s around
She plays the oldest game in town
She likes to party, drinks her vodka neat
And she’s a much better actress than Meryl Streep
6) Fiery passion in a hotel room
These first time lovers they’re no bride and groom
“No need to hurry she says no need to rush
Sixty seconds of love it’s never enough”
Slow Down – (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down – (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down - (don’t move so fast)
Slow Down..
