I can't slow down, 'cause I'm too pumped My girl left town, and I got dumped My best friend drowned, and I got jumped last night My heart says "cry", my mind says, "murder" My throat says "dry', my gut says "burger" My mom says "why?", but I never heard her right I got a spring in my step, as I fall on my face The winter months left a real bad taste In the corner of my mouth, 'cause I can't fly south... But I can't listen to the voice of reason No more -- 'cause I love this season Summer is back in town and I can't slow down I can't help feeling like I'm on the run 'Cause you got the wheel, and I got the gun There's cars to steal, and I'm gonna have fun tonight I got an old, black Ford; a black leather jacket A full floorboard of mayonnaise packets Hang on, Lord, 'cause I'm gonna wreck it tonight! I've been a real good boy through the month of May But I can't wait another day There's no Route 66 and it makes me sick But I can't listen to the voice of reason No more -- 'cause I love this season Summer is back in town and I can't slow down I can't slow down, 'cause I'm too loaded The car broke down, the tank exploded A wall downtown, and I almost rode it through (Downtown -- There's a wall downtown) I can't sit still 'cause I'm to wired Can't pay bills, 'cause I got fired I've had my fill, I'm sick and tired of you I got a smile on my face and a price on my head; A knife in my hand and a girl in my bed; A key to the Pearly Gates and I can't wait! But I can't listen to the voice of reason No more -- 'cause I love this season Summer is back in town... And I can't slow down!
