Lyrics
Verse 1: A car broke down in a sleepy town on the eastern edge of Arkansas, found a mom’n’pops fixit shop sittin catty cornered from a pool hall, an old man came and shook my hand and I told him I was in a hurry, he looked me in the eye and said well come inside son, there’s no need to worry.
Chorus: You gotta, sit back and relax in the rockin chair out on the porch, I think there’s some cold drinks in the ice box over by the checkered board, around here you gotta shift you gear slow down and unwind, cause we’re just movin at the speed of life
Verse2: He looked under the hood and said well this ain’t good but I can have a part in tomorrow, mister that’s too late, now I can’t wait I gotta a meeting out in Chicago, and she pulled up in a pickup truck, I never seen a girl lookin hotter, the old man said son, watch your step boy, your starin at my only daughter
Chorus: You gotta sit back and relax in the rockin chair out on the porch, I think there’s some cold drinks in the ice box over by the checkered board, around here you gotta shift your gear slow down and unwind, cause we’re just movin at the speed of life
Bridge: Well I’ve hung around this tiny town longer than I expected, that girl’s been my whole world ever since our lives connected
Chorus: Now we sit back and relax in the rockin chairs out on the porch, we keep some cold drinks in the ice box over by the checkered board, around here we’ve learned to shift our gear slow down and unwind, cause we’re just movin at the speed of life….. sit back and relax in the rockin chairs out on the porch, we keep some cold drinks in the ice box over by the checkered board, around here we’ve learned to shift you gear slow down and unwind, cause we’re just movin at the speed of life…..
