Sublime – Slow Ride lyrics

She takes her time when it's time to get ready
always has her way
always leaves me waitin by the phone
she told me more than once to take it slow
and i said ok
but lately i've been sleeping all alone.

I'm not breakin up inside i'm much too proud to moan.
ba-by, please come home.
I feel a little lucky so I try to play it cool
I think she laughs inside
with words that burn like fire in my mouth
try to be a man like I got the master plan,
night out on the town
oh drinkin, dancin, we can turn it out.
Wooah
maybe it's how your body moves I just don't know.
maybe, it's just the way you move so slow.

dials...
phone rings...
girl: hello
Bradley: Hi it's me
girl: I thought I told you not to call me here
Bradley: I know, I just really needed to talk to you
girl: Get a clue babe, there's nothing to talk about
Hangs up...
dial tone...

Ask me why I play myself, play myself for a fool
swear that I would do most anything
hey, huh
walk a mile just to, see her smile
walk a mile just to, rock for a while
and babe, I'm thinking with my ding-a-ling
whoa, I've been doin some thinking now 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

But sittin on the verge of tears does not become my 22 years,
you took my shame and you took my pride,
and now you're gonna take me for a slow ride
but-ah--uh-waiting, waiting on the phone
you got words that burn like fire in my mouth
Come on down, reggae style, wind up your body like a bass line wild.
Drinkin, dancin, we can turn it out.
whooooaaaaaaaaaaa
I'm not goin crazy but I just don't know
maybe, it's just the way you move so slo-ow
maybe cuz you move so slow
maybe cuz you move so slow

like love. move nice and slow. SLOWRIDE! SLOWRIDE! SLOWRIDE!
