[Verse 1]

When I was just a young boy

You know my father said to me

When you get a little older son

You got to live your life casually

You got to take things real slow-like

If you really wanna last

You know you only live once in this life

Can't live your life too fast


[Chorus]

Easy does it, baby

Well, easy does it every time

Well now that I'm a little wiser

Well easy does it with this life of mine


[Verse 2]

When I grew a little older

I started noticin' the female sex

With their foxy little bodies

And their long and shapely legs

So I got me a little woman

And I took her home to my bed

I said "How about it, baby?"

And this is what she said, she said


[Chorus]

Easy does it, baby

Easy does it every time

Well now that I'm a little wiser

Well easy does it with this life of mine

Hey!

Ooh


[Instrumental Break]

Hey!


[Verse 3]

Now you gotta listen to me everybody

'Cause you know the same applies to you

When everything is over

You know the name of the game is you

It don't pay to be impulsive

But it ain't too bad to hesitate

Just like the old saying goes

Good things come to those who wait


[Chorus]

Easy does it

Boy, easy does it every time, oh

Now that I'm a little wiser

Well easy does it with this life of mine

Ooh

Alright

Oh, I'm just take it easy now


[Outro]

Well now that I'm a little wiser

Well easy does it, well easy does it, what

Well easy does it with this heart of mine
