| A shepherd boy in a land you’ve never seen |
| Saw a girl busting out in bloom |
| He knew his sheep, but girls he’d never seen |
| Flipped his turban just smellin' her perfume |
| Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| She’s a flame, but you’re no match |
| Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| You’ll do the chasing and she will make the catch |
| I love you, I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| I love you, I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| He followed her through a mile of desert sand |
| She walked like honey poured when it’s warm |
| His heart kept time just like an army band |
| Wish for a payment to put down on a farm |
| Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| You’ve walked a mile for what you’re gonna get |
| Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| Stop making plans, you haven’t got her yet |
| I love you, I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| I love you, I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| She dropped her veil and he recovered it |
| He gazed upon her beauty rare |
| He thought he was the first one to discover it |
| Noticed four rings on her fingers there |
| Oh, Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| No need to run, your flock’s asleep |
| Slow down shepherd boy, woah down shepherd boy |
| You’re singin' now, but you’re singin' to your sheep |
| I love you, I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, I love you, |
| I love you |
| The shepherd sings his heart out |
| Well that’s alright, I’m through with you chicks anyway |
| And I’m going back and watching my sheep |
