Can't Slow Down (Bonus Track)
The highway bends like my lover's leg
Pulls me in like a wick draws a flame
She don't bother to remember my name
We don't talk of such things
I'll kiss you once
Baby, I'll kiss you twice
But I can't kiss you for the rest of your life
'Cause I'm not fit to be the man that makes you a wife
Baby, baby its just my foolish plight
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my home town
And I can't slow down
I do what any man can to survive
Work a day or maybe even night
But I can't work inside for some 9-5
Honey not in this life
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my hometown
And I can't slow down
Brown bodies
Bent at the waist
Frozen in a field as I drive by
In my unconscious pace
Freedom is not a state of mind
Nor is it a united state
Oh, and it sure ain't my escape
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my hometown
And I can't slow down
No no no oh no
And I can't slow down
No oh no
Oh, lord
And I can't slow down
Pulls me in like a wick draws a flame
She don't bother to remember my name
We don't talk of such things
I'll kiss you once
Baby, I'll kiss you twice
But I can't kiss you for the rest of your life
'Cause I'm not fit to be the man that makes you a wife
Baby, baby its just my foolish plight
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my home town
And I can't slow down
I do what any man can to survive
Work a day or maybe even night
But I can't work inside for some 9-5
Honey not in this life
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my hometown
And I can't slow down
Brown bodies
Bent at the waist
Frozen in a field as I drive by
In my unconscious pace
Freedom is not a state of mind
Nor is it a united state
Oh, and it sure ain't my escape
Whatever road I may go down
If it bends, if it don't know how
I ain't stopped since I left my hometown
And I can't slow down
No no no oh no
And I can't slow down
No oh no
Oh, lord
And I can't slow down
