(ahhhh) Coffee's getting cold on the wooden sill
Watch the morning roll down the dusty hill
Nothing moves too fast in this sleepy town
Just the record spinning round and round
Slow down the clock,
let the shadows grow
We've got nowhere left we have to go
Singing sweet and low,
letting go of time
With a simple beat and a country rhyme
(ooh-ooh-ooh) Screen door swings in the afternoon breeze
Golden light filtering through the trees
Old dog sleeping on the porch tonight
Underneath the fading twilight (mmmmm)
Sometimes the world spins too fast
(yeah) But this quiet night is gonna last
Slow down the clock,
let the shadows grow
We've got nowhere left we have to go
Singing sweet and low,
letting go of time
With a simple beat and a country rhyme
(sweet and low, sweet and low) (mmmmm)
