Can't Slow Down Lyrics

Brett Dennen Can't Slow Down

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 pride

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 own country's 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
