Better Slow

(アルバム： Stray Dog - 2023)

Talladega's made for racing
Tearing that Alabama pavement up
Whiskey's made for getting there quick
When the cold beer ain't enough

We wish away 19 and 20
Just to get to 21
But lately I've been realizing
When it's all said and done

Some things like a ride in paw paw's truck
Some things like a deer stand sun coming up
Some things you don't need faster
Like a tractor blocking the road
Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back
Some things you better make 'em last
Some things are worth soaking in
'Cause you just never know
Like the hug you give you mama right before you go
Some things are better slow

From five o'clock on Friday
'Til that Sunday sun goes down
How your Goodyears® roll
When you know
You got the hottest thing in town

How you float down a small-mouth river
When your limit's just one more
How you pet your dog
That's barely holding on
After 12 years on the porch

Yeah, some things like a ride in paw paw's truck
Some things like a deer stand sun coming up
Some things you don't need faster
Like a tractor blocking the road
Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back
Some things you better make 'em last
Some things are worth soaking in
'Cause you just never know
Like the hug you give you mama right before you go
Some things are better slow

Just like sand through an hourglass
Some things fly by too fast

Yeah, some things like a ride in paw paw's truck
Some things like a deer stand sun coming up
Some things you don't need faster
Like a tractor blocking the road
Yeah, some things you ain't gonna get back
Some things you better make 'em last
Some things are worth soaking in
'Cause you just never know
Like the hug you give you mama right before you go
Some things are better slow
Slow
Better slow
