Slow Down

The Beatles

Well come on pretty baby, won't you walk with me

Come on pretty baby, won't you talk with me

Come on pretty baby, give me one more chance

Try to save our romance

Slow down! Baby, now you're movin' way too fast

You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'

Ow! If you want our love to last

Well I used to walk you home baby after school

Carry your books home too

But now you got a boyfriend down the street

Baby what you're tryin' to do

You better slow down! Baby, now you're movin' way too fast

You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'

Brrr! If you want our love to last

Well you know that I love you, tell the world I do

Come on pretty baby, why can't you be true

I need your body baby oh so bad

The best little woman I ever had

Slow down! Baby, now you're movin' way too fast

You gotta gimme little lovin', gimme little lovin'

Ow! If you want our love to last
