"Boy, you got a way with words / I got feelings 'till the feelings hurt / Boy, you got a way with words / And I got, and I got, and I got." A clapping beat commences and the song fully blooms with a catchy chorus and infectious groove. The song ends with a stripped down piano chords as Josephine sings her last line, "Baby there's no point in slowing down."
