Going Down Slow - Pinetop Perkins

Seasons Passing By,

Summer Gone and I can’t recall that I saw

a shinning sun in the sky

then the winter comes,

I am occupied buying things for my child,

when I’m done it is gone.

please come back!

take it easy, everyone should take it easy.

you got to slow down, everyone should calm down.

take it easy, everyone should take it easy.

you got to slow down before it is too late.

To stress and strains of modern life say no.

years are passing by,

I can’t hear anymore, wrinkles are blooming now

and my hair’s getting white.

then I fade away,

getting old and sick, all I remember now

is the smell of the strain

Move your body, hurry up now;

i' be got no time to waste.

I’m so busy, get a move on,

must be in time for tea.

I must be there!
