I fell in love with a southern girl
I gave her wings
but she don't wanna fly no more

Slow it down......
Slow it down......

she wants a ring
and she's slamming the door
"but baby don't cry
whatcha in a hurry for"

Slow it down.......
Slow it down.......

We are wild and young
we have just begun

slow it down you move a little too fast
gotta take a deep breathe and make it last
these should be the best days of your life

We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
We are wild and young

Her free fall came a little out of the blue
what happened to the days of doin what we wanted to do?
slow it down......
slow it down......

we should kick back
just have a little fun
2 kids gettin high
have a couple beers in the sun

slow it down.......
slow it down.......

we are wild and young
we have just begun

We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)

slow it down you move a little too fast
gotta take a deep breathe and make it last
these should be the best days of your life

We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)

We are wild and young
(there's no reason to run)
