[Intro]
[Verse 1]
The smoke and the booze don t treat me like they did back then.
Those little white pills we took to forget where we d been.
And I ve seen first-hand what the needle has done to my friend.
Thank God I m still here to stay away from the places I ve been.
[Chorus]
You ve got to slow down while we can still see the miles.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane and rest for a while.
You live with your demons long enough they seem like your friends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
[Verse 2]
That first cigarette didn’t do much, the second one did.
That first taste of whiskey was good when I was a kid.
So, I’ll tell you first-hand I’ve been there, I know where you are.
In ways I am still that kid with eyes for the stars.
[Chorus]
You ve got to slow down while we can still see the miles.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane and rest for a while.
You live with your demons long enough they seem like your friends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
[Verse 1]
The smoke and the booze don t treat me like they did back then.
Those little white pills we took to forget where we d been.
And I ve seen first-hand what the needle has done to my friend.
Thank God I m still here to stay away from the places I ve been.
[Chorus]
You ve got to slow down while we can still see the miles.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane and rest for a while.
You live with your demons long enough they seem like your friends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
[Verse 2]

So, I’ll tell you first-hand I’ve been there, I know where you are.

[Chorus]
You ve got to slow down while we can still see the miles.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane and rest for a while.
You live with your demons long enough they seem like your friends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
Put on the brakes in the fast lane before your road ends.
