| Wanted to be where you were
|
| New to the town
|
| This little country girl packed her bags
|
| She up and went
|
| So she could be where her heart lived
|
| She ain’t know no better
|
| Thought that it would last forever
|
| But she ended up getting hurt
|
| Regretted leaving home
|
| Wished that she had known
|
| As soon as she got there
|
| He would be long gone
|
| But she said
|
| It’s too late to turn back
|
| No, I don’t wanna go home now
|
| But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby can you slow it down
|
| Please pump the brakes, don’t speed
|
| I’ve got miles and miles of love
|
| Ain’t no need to try to rush
|
| We gon' get there just the same
|
| Why don’t we map out the way?
|
| Living in this city love, this city love
|
| City love’s too fast for the country
|
| Ohhh la la la la la la
|
| It’s too fast for the country
|
| Ohhh la la la la la la
|
| Convinced herself not to cry
|
| It’s not her fault they don’t see eye to eye
|
| She can’t turn back 'cause they all think
|
| She should’ve stayed home from the beginning
|
| She’s gonna prove em wrong
|
| Even if it takes her too long
|
| To find herself a new love
|
| Far away from home
|
| Wished that she had known
|
| The moment she got there
|
| He would be long gone
|
| But she said
|
| It’s too late to turn back
|
| No, I don’t wanna go home now
|
| But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby can you slow it down
|
| Please pump the brakes, don’t speed
|
| I’ve got miles and miles of love
|
| Ain’t no need to try to rush
|
| We gon' get there just the same
|
| Why don’t we map out the way?
|
| Living in this city love, this city love
|
| City love’s too fast for the country
|
| She didn’t know what to do She had nothing left to lose
|
| She was lost, so confused
|
| Out of her element, so heartbroken
|
| Decided to let it go Nowhere she could turn to, nowhere else to go No way to pull through, nothing to hold to Where else could she be?
|
| What else could she do?
|
| She said
|
| It’s too late to turn back
|
| No, I don’t wanna go home now
|
| But this city love moves way too fast for me So baby won’t you slow it down
|
| Please pump the brakes, don’t speed
|
| I’ve got miles and miles of love
|

|
| City love’s too fast for the country
|
| Ohhh la la la la la la
|
| It’s too fast for the country
|
| Ohhh la la la la la la
|
| I’ve got miles and miles of love
|
| Ain’t no need to try or rush
|
| We gon' get there just the same
|
| Why don’t we map out the way?
|
| You ain’t in the city, love
|
| This city love
|
| City love’s too fast for the country |
