John Hiatt - Slow Turning lyrics

When I was a boy,

I thought it just came to ya`

But I never could tell what`s mine

So it didn`t matter anyway

My only pride and joy

Was this racket down here

Bangin` on an old guitar

And singin` what I had to say

I always thought our house was haunted

But nobody said boo to me

I never did get what I wanted

Now I get what I need

CHORUS:

It`s been a slow turnin`

From the inside out

A slow turnin`

But you come about

Slow learnin`

But you learn to sway

A slow turnin` baby

Not fade away

Now I`m in my car

I got the radio on

I`m yellin` at the kids in the back seat

`Cause they`re bangin` like Charlie Watts

You think you`ve come so far

In this one horse town

Then she`s laughin` that crazy laugh

`Cause you haven`t left the parkin` lot

Time is short and here`s the damn thing about it

You`re gonna die, gonna die for sure

And you can learn to live with love or without it

But there ain`t no cure

There`s just a...

REPEAT CHORUS
