Slow down baby
The lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
Don’t rush, baby
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
Slow it down
Slow it down, yeah
Don’t rush, baby
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
Slow it down
When we make love
Baby, all we got to do
Is take our time and get it, get it right in the groove
Now there’s no need to rush it, baby
And don’t rush, so slow it down
Slow it down and get it right, yeah yeah
Now baby, it’s understood when lovin’ is feelin’ good
So lets just take our time and make it last, oh
Don’t rush, baby (don’t rush, baby)
Lovin’ ain’t goin’ nowhere (nowhere, nowhere)
Slow it down (slow it down, baby, slow it down, baby)
Don’t rush, baby (don’t rush, baby)
Lovin’ ain’t goin’ nowhere (nowhere, nowhere)
Slow it down
Now I’ve got a feelin', baby, that tonight could be the night
Don’t rush it, don’t fight it
If you’ve got a notion, baby, please let it be slow motion
Slow it down, baby, keep it right there, keep it right there, hey
Now baby, it’s understood when lovin’ is feelin’ good, yeah, yeah
So lets just take our time and make it last
Don't rush, baby (oh, don’t rush)
Lovin' ain’t goin' nowhere (nowhere, nowhere)
Slow it down (keep it right there, keep it right there)
Don’t rush, baby (oh, don’t rush)
Lovin' ain’t goin' nowhere (keep it right there, keep it right there)
Slow it down
Ohh, yeah, yeah, yeah
Don’t rush, baby (don't rush)
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere (nowhere, nowhere, nowhere)
Slow it down
Don’t rush, baby (oh, don’t rush)
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere (so keep it right there, keep it right there)
Don’t rush, baby (don't rush, baby)
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
Slow it down (don’t rush, baby)
Don’t rush, don't rush
Don’t rush, baby (don't rush, baby)
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere (don’t rush, baby)
Slow it down
(Keep it right there, keep it right there)
Don’t rush, baby (don't rush, baby)
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
Slow it down
Don’t rush, baby
Lovin' ain't goin' nowhere
