[Verse 1]
I need to find a country station where the DJ's heart is breakin'
Playin' Jones and Merle and Waylon, all damn day
I'm so sick of doin' ninety, need a road that's so damn windy
It leads to somewhere no one finds this Chevrolet
[Chorus]
I need slow and southern like a Sunday
Like muddy water rollin' by a riverbank
Like some sleepy little town, down with the moon
Livin' like honey drippin' off a spoon
Like the sun that takes an hour to get behind the water tower
'Bout the speed of watchin' wildflowers grow
Ain't but two ways this old boy's gonna go
Slow and southern, southern and slow
[Verse 2]
Yeah, I'm over wild-ass women
Gеttin' gone in a New York minute
Aw, but girl, somеthin' tells me that ain't you (That ain't you)
I wanna take my sweet time, like the slow buzz of that sweet shine
Nothin' keeps me high quite like you do (Like you do)
[Chorus]
When you love me slow and southern like a Sunday
Like muddy water rollin' by a riverbank
Like some sleepy little town, down with the moon
Livin' like honey drippin' off a spoon
Like the sun that takes an hour to get behind the water tower
'Bout the speed of watchin' wildflowers grow
Ain't but two ways this old boy's gonna go
Slow and southern, southern and slow, southern and slow
Southern and slow, yeah
[Bridge]
Woah, ooh-woah, girl, right now that's all I'm needin'
Woah, ooh-woah, just take me there and keep it
[Chorus]
Slow and southern like a Sunday
Like muddy water rollin' by a riverbank
Like some sleepy little town, down with the moon
Livin' like honey drippin' off a spoon
Like the sun that takes an hour to get behind the water tower
'Bout the speed of watchin' wildflowers grow
Ain't but two ways this old boy's gonna go
Slow and southern, southern and slow, yeah
Southern and slow
[Outro]

‘Southern and Slow’ reflects on simple times,. Those picture-perfect moments like the sun setting behind a water tower, honey dripping off a spoon, well, it doesn’t get much country’er than that. Let’s slow it down southern style because this life seems to be moving faster than ever.
