Deep Purple Slow Down Sister (version 2) Lyrics

Slow Down Sister (version 2) Lyrics

Cold looking woman 

Like a switch-blade knife 

Baby says “I’m gonna
break the law tonight� 

Ooh, if your daddy could see you now 

Rock
and roll rebel on a jailbreak run 

Big operator, but a little high-strung


There’s one in every crowd 



You got it comin’ to ya 

It
happens every time 

That’s what you get for a life of crime 

You got
it coming to you 

If you cross that line 

And you can’t back up


When the going gets tough 

And if the fire’s that hot 

You
better kiss the girl goodbye 



Slow down sister 

You’re burn,
burn, burnin’ 

At the speed of light 

You better slow down sister


Put on the brakes 

Won’t get thru the night   



Machine gun
love 

Gonna shoot to thrill 

I’m tellin’ you that little girl’s
kiss could kill 

She got me stranded on a one-way street 

Can’t break
the chains 

The ties that bind 

Slayin’ to the rhythm 

And my
heart’s in time 

Be where the taste is bittersweet 



You got it
comin’ to ya 

It happens every time 

That’s what you get for a life
of crime 

You got it coming to you 

If you cross that line 

When the
lights roll down 

And you hit the ground 

It’ll happen so fast


You’ll never even have a chance 



Slow down sister 

I say
look out now 

Danger in the little girl’s eyes 

Slow down sister


Well you’re gonna find out 

Trouble in paradise 

That ain’t
nice 



You’re a non-stop party 

You’re a butterfly ball


Twice around the block 

You’re thinking you done it all 

Come on
now baby 

You know it’s true 

You want all the money 

And the
price of fame 

Ride to glory 

On another man’s name 

Now
there’s a lesson here for you 



You got it comin’ to ya 

It
happens every time 

That’s what you get for a life of crime 

You got
it coming to you 

When you cross that line 

And you can’t back up


When it gets real rough 

If the fire’s that hot 

You better kiss
the girl goodbye 



Slow down sister 

Burn, burn, burnin’ 

At
the speed of light 

Slow down sister 

Put on the brakes 

Now
we’re gettin’ thru the night 



You better slow down sister 

I
said “Look out now� 

There’s danger 

In the little girl’s eyes


Slow down sister 

Slow down, slow down 

Gonna find out there’s
trouble 

Trouble in paradise 



I said slow
