Got a girl from the south side, got braids in her hair First time I seen her walk by, man I 'bout fell off my chair Had to get her number, it took me like six weeks Now me and her go way back like Cadillac seats Body like a back road, drivin' with my eyes closed I know every curve like the back of my hand Doin' 15 in a 30, I ain't in no hurry I'mma take it slow just as fast as I can The way she fit in them blue jeans, she don't need no belt But I can turn them inside out, I don't need no help Got hips like honey, so thick and so sweet It ain't no curves like hers on them downtown streets Body like a back road, drivin' with my eyes closed I know every curve like the back of my hand Doin' 15 in a 30, I ain't in no hurry I'mma take it slow just as fast as I can We're out here in the boondocks With the breeze and the birds Tangled up in the tall grass With my lips on hers On the highway to heaven Headed south of her smile Get there when we get there Every inch is a mile Body like a back road, drivin' with my eyes closed I know every curve like the back of my hand Doin' 15 in a 30, I ain't in no hurry I'mma take it slow just as fast as I can I'mma take it slow Just as fast as I can (Body like a back road) (Drivin' with my eyes closed) Got braids in her hair (I know every curve like the back of my hand)
