You got my shirts in your car

The whistling train

I kiss you again and again

Down the back road in Pata-psco

We're driving slow, windows are low, and tires are slick from the snow

We get older, we both grow

I can't wait to get home

We laugh, we fight, we yell, we take it off

This town's slow, I like it slow with you
