I fell in love with a southern girl
I gave her wings
But she don't wanna fly no more

Slow it down (2x)

She wants a ring
And she's slamming the door
But baby don't cry whatcha in a hurry for

Slow it down (2x)

We are wild and young
We have just begun

So slow it down you move a little too fast
You take a deep breathe and make it last
And you should be the best days of your life

I said we are wild and young
Oh, we are wild and young

And her free fall came a little out of the blue
What happened to the days of doin' what we wanted to do?

Slow it down (2x)

We should kick back
Just have a little fun
Two kids gettin' high
Have a couple beers in the sun

Slow it down (2x)

We are wild and young
We have just begun

I said we are wild and young
Oh, we are wild and young

So slow it down you move a little too fast
You take a deep breathe and make it last
And you should be the best days of your life

I said we are wild and young
Oh, we are wild and young
