Slow It Down
19-Twenty Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
Girl I can do the two-step all night
If you want to slow it down just right
Girl I can move it anyway that you like
Girl we could do the wine and grind
Or we can rub-a-dub all night
But you've got to slow down for me
Because I really love your style and your vibe is so nice
But you know that I smoke and drink
So let's pass the dutchie some more
Until the sunrise we can go
I got a cool spot we can roll
Girl I'm all that you're missing fo sho
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
Girl Ima smoke Ima drink just a little bit more
See the way you wiggle that thing to the floor
You know I like that shit
I'm only just a man
If you dance with me I'll do the best I can
Girl Ima Rock you to the left and take it to the other side
And I don't know what you heard but I'm the loving type
And every single time I'm gonna take my time
Mama didn't raise no fool but I ain't living right
So let me lighten up the mood I push the volume on the sound
I might be taking dabs I might be smoking pounds
All I wanna see is you making daddy proud
We some Twenty Dollar Prophets but we making thousands now
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
Do you want this dance to last
All night long?
Or what?
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
You've got to slow down a little bit baby
When you're moving a little too fast if you
Wanted this dance to last all night long
Do you want this dance to last all night long
Oh lord

You've got to slow down a little bit baby
Take it easy, don't rush
When you're moving a little too fast if you
When you're trying to move too quickly
Wanted this dance to last all night long
If you want to enjoy the whole night with me
Girl I can do the two-step all night
I can dance with you in any way you like
If you want to slow it down just right
If you want to take it slow and steady
I know you see my body type
I know you're attracted to me
Girl we could do the wine and grind
We could dance all sensual and close
Or we can rub-a-dub all night
Or we can dance reggae style together all night
But you've got to slow down for me
But please take it easy and slow, for me
Because I really love your style and your vibe is so nice
I really like the way you dance and your vibe is awesome
But you know that I smoke and drink
I want you to know that I usually smoke and drink
So let's pass the dutchie some more
Let's smoke more marijuana together
Until the sunrise we can go
We can stay up and dance until the sun rises
I got a cool spot we can roll
I have a nice place we can go to
Girl I'm all that you're missing fo sho
I am the one you've been looking for, for sure
Girl Ima smoke Ima drink just a little bit more
I want to smoke and drink more and enjoy the night with you
See the way you wiggle that thing to the floor
I like the way you move your body when you dance
You know I like that shit
I really love that about you
I'm only just a man
I'm just a human, with flaws and desires
If you dance with me I'll do the best I can
If you dance with me, I'll try to be the best partner possible
Girl Ima Rock you to the left and take it to the other side
I'll dance with you in a crazy and fun way
And I don't know what you heard but I'm the loving type
I want you to know that I'm capable of loving and caring for you
And every single time I'm gonna take my time
I'll take my time to enjoy this moment with you every time
Mama didn't raise no fool but I ain't living right
I try not to make foolish mistakes but sometimes it's difficult
So let me lighten up the mood I push the volume on the sound
Let's have fun and turn up the music
I might be taking dabs I might be smoking pounds
I might use drugs like marijuana
All I wanna see is you making daddy proud
I want to see you happy and having a good time
We some Twenty Dollar Prophets but we making thousands now
Our music group may have started small, but we are now successful with thousands of fans
Do you want this dance to last all night long
Are you enjoying this dance and do you want it to continue?
Oh lord
Expression of joy and excitement
