Take Your Time Lyrics by Travis Shallow

Travis Shallow

2016

(VERSE)
I’ve got the devil in my pocket
Got a cross around my neck
I got a girl so far away
Feels like years since I’ve touched her face
I got a yearnin’ baby for a new start
‘Cause it hurts too much to stay the same
I got a full bottle of whiskey
And I ain’t left the house in days
(CHORUS)
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
Cause I'm startin’ to feel long in the tooth
Gotta find a way to age like wine
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
(VERSE)
Well they say the world can change in the blink of an eye
Wеll I read in the paper today about a boy who lost his lifе
He’s goin’ 100 on the highway
He's got liquor flowin’ in his veins
Well he’s 26 years old
But not too young to outrun his fate
(CHORUS)
So take your time
Slow down and take your time
‘Cause your youth is more than just a word
That will make you cross the line
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
(BRIDGE)
'Cause the world will take your plans
And turn ‘em upside down
Your heart can beat so fast
It’ll turn your body inside out
Do you believe in faith and God and love live in this old town
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
​
(Verse)
I’ve got the devil in my pocket
Got a cross around my neck
I got a girl so far away
Seems like years since I’ve touched her face
​
I got a yearning baby for a new start
'Cause it hurts too much to stay the same
I got an empty bottle of whiskey
Readin' the good book page for page
​
(CHORUS)
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
'Cause I'm startin’ to feel long in the tooth
Gotta find a way to age like wine
​
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
‘Cause your youth is more than just a word
That will make you cross the line
​
Take your time
Slow down and take your time
I'm gonna take my time
Be sure to take your time
