Well my poor broke mama told me
When I was twelve years old
Said you eat'n, talk'n 'nare too fast
There's one thing you should know
Should take your time my sweet baby
Take your time my blue eyed son
Well you might never have his money
But you won't miss no rich man's fun

Yeah I could never give you money honey
I could never buy you clothes
But the way them women look at you
Some day you should have both
If you take your time my sweet baby
Take your time and love? em slow
And if you play your cards right, now
You won't never wait no more

Yeah well the ladies like the diamonds
They like their brand new clothes
But I was blessed with plenty of
The thing they love the most
I take my time with the ladies
[ From: http://www.elyrics.net ]
I take my time and I love them slow
And since I turned thirteen Lord
I ain't never wait no more

Guitar

Yeah I could never give you money honey
I could never buy you clothes
But the way these schoolgirls look at you
Someday you gonna have both
Take your time my sweet baby
Take your time my blue eyed son
Well you might never have his money
But you won't miss no rich man's fun

Instrumental

Yeah ladies like the diamonds
I tell ya I like their brand new clothes
But I was blessed with plenty of
The thing they love most
I take my time with the ladies
I take my time, I love them slow
And since I turned thirteen Lord
I ain't never wait no more
