Take your time
Life is easy
If you try
Take your time
It won't last
If you living fast
So just try
To take your time

Woman and wine
What a sin!
Riding around in a black limousine
They take your money
Break your heart and leave

They told
Learn the lesson
From this fool

Take your time
You must walk
Before you run
Get it done
Take your time

Woman and wine
What a sin!
Riding around in a black limousine
They take your money
Break your heart and leave

Woman and wine
What a sin!
Riding around in a black limousine
They take your money
Break your heart and leave

You must walk
Before you run
Get it done
Take your time
Play it cool
Learn the lesson
From this fool
Take your time
