Won't break my heart, won't hope to die Before Lexington could slow down They say a chariot's waitin' When you get cut loose The place starts swinging When it's me on the noose Mother do you think That your children cry Cause they want to shake your chain? I walked miles today, one for every year of my life In this stinking fucking rain Ooh, just to slow down So I could slow down So I could slow down, yeah Work for me luck, just one last time Spare me a chance, I've wasted mine Shine on me light, don't you know I would Reach for you there, if only I could If I could slow down If I could slow down If I could slow down, just slow down Don't mind being stoned, they said Jesus was And I like being alone, and I could take livin' low Forgive my being cruel, if ever I was Say a word for me too, when I'm under the gun Wouldn't break my heart If I could slow down Let the place start swingin' There's a chariot waitin' Wouldn't break my heart If I could slow down Let the place start swinging There's a chariot waitin' Wouldn't break my heart
