LADY ANTEBELLUM
"Slow Down Sister"
(Jason "Slim" Gambill / Dave Haywood / Charles Kelley / Victoria Shaw)

[Intro:]
Slow down sister 'cause I just can't love you
But I just can't get you off my mind
Come on

Well, I ain't your fool, I'm not falling
I'm not falling in love with you
I play by my rules
And believe me
You don't want me too close to you

[Pre-Chorus 1:]
And even though you look so fine
I've been on this broken road one too many times

[Chorus:]
So slow down sister 'cause I just can't love you
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh, and Lord knows I need you
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line

I've heard people say
That I'm crazy
That I'm crazy for avoiding you
But honey, I got my freedom
And my reasons
All the reasons for what I do

[Pre-Chorus 2:]
But that last kiss just did me in
And I don't want to look at you at something
More than a friend

[Chorus:]
Oh, so slow down sister 'cause I just can't love you
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh, and Lord knows I need you
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line

[Bridge:]
Whoa, slow down sister
I gotta make you mine
All I'm asking for is just a little time
A little more time

[Chorus:]
So slow down sister 'cause I just can't love you
But I just can't get you off my mind
Oh, and Lord knows I need you
But I just don't want to
Put this rusted heart upon the line

[Outro:]
Slow down sister
Woo-hoo-hoo
Yeah, uh-huh
We'll just slow down, slow down, slow down
Just one time
