The Rolling Stones - Let Me Down Slow lyrics

rate me

(M. Jagger/K. Richards)

You look a little dressed up

You're acting way too smart

Your face a little bit flushed

For a walk in the park

And you're clutching your phone

As you walk in the dark

And your smile's got a twist

You're looking so hardcore

If you've something to say

Don't be too direct

'Cause I feel a little fragile

Don't hit the nail on the head

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow

Oh no no no

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow

No no no

There's a swish in your step

There's a gleam in your eye

Are you coloring your hair

With some new kind of dye

But the first one to blink

Is the first one to fall

I don't want a confrontation

I've got my back to the wall

Oh baby, baby, let me down real slow

Oh no no no

Why I said, baby, baby, let me down real slow

Oh na na no

Oh baby, baby, let me down real slow

Let me strech out in the afterglow

Oh na na na na

Let me down real slow

Oh na na na.. baby, let me down real slow
