SLOW DOWN GIRL
Words and Music: Ben Krahne & Donna Aylor & Blake Hill

A little girl stands on an old phone book
Just to see how good she looks in the mirror
With her Mama’s lipstick on
Flips the pages of a magazine
Dreams about Divas and limousines
That’s the life she wants
Can’t wait for time to pass
Her Mama says “You’re growing too fast…

CHORUS
SLOW DOWN GIRL WHAT’S YOUR HURRY
LIFE IS JUST ONE LONG JOURNEY
WAITING FOR YOU
YOU SEE THE WORLD THROUGH INNOCENT EYES
BORN TO RUN WITH WINGS TO FLY
YOU BETTER SLOW DOWN GIRL


That little girl’s turning seventeen
Packs for L.A. to chase big dreams
So determined to prove she’s right
Her Daddy says ‘What about college
You’re too young don’t have the knowledge
She says, “Dad I’ve gotta try”
No time to wait she’s in a rush
Waves goodbye from a Greyhound bus

REPEAT CHORUS

BRIDGE
As the curtain rises slowly
Her band begins to play
The screaming fans all know her name
Then she hears those words Mama used to say …..

REPEAT CHORUS
SLOW DOWN GIRL
IT’S ALL OUT THERE
IT’S ALL OUT THERE
WAITING ON YOU
