Kings Of Leon - Slow Night, So Long Lyrics






Slow night so long, she's frenching out the flavour,
She's 17 but I done went an plum forgot it

No tears are gone they're pooling on the table,
No tears are gone they're leaving their mark behind

So far so good she's absolutely wasted,
She's hanging up and changing her story around

I just don't know where leading ladies come from,
I just don't know where they can be found

She's opened up just like she really knows me,
I hate her face, but enjoy the company

I'll take you home, or back to Oklahoma,
You're not so nice, but sex sells so cheap

Rise and shine all you gold-digging mothers,
Are you too good to tango with the poor boys

    M.... S....

    Fuckin' A

    M.... S....

    Minerva Sanchez i said the same 1st 3 albums are awesome then they got to comercial

    M.... S....

    just avoid those hits

    M.... S....

    By far their best album

  21. R.... F....

    Just epic :)

  22. j.... ....

    track one says it all

  23. m.... ....

    2:46 onwards is just pure magic. i've listened to this song a thousand and one times over 10 years and this part still surprises me. so pretty.

    m.... ....

    Been re-listening to this album of late, the whole thing's a bit magical.

    I know they get shit for selling out, etc...but when you have a body of work like KOL's first three albums they could have released the sounds of baby sealions being thrown into tree pulpers on an album and I'd have forgiven them.

    m.... ....

    @tactictoe Hahaha the visual in my head of baby sea lions being thrown into tree pulpers! I agree with you 100%, the first three, the holy trinity more than makes up for all of the change.

    m.... ....

    Ha, the holy trinity! I like that. And fuck it, they decided to make the big bucks, they saw what music has become...so do they keep on keeping it real and die penniless, whilst somebody who has no talent, but plenty of PR, profits?

    m.... ....

    @mothertothemoon7
    Let them fart into the microphone for 40 minutes and call it art, wotevs. There will always be the outro to this song.

  24. S.... S....

    <3 this track

  25. o.... ....

    ohhh the violence!!!

  26. h.... ....

    she is right though :)

  27. H.... h....

    Good point. I don't laugh at those people, I'd rather just disagree

  28. C.... x....

    'i lol at people who think there[sic] true KOL fans' haha

  29. b.... ....

    sure :)

  30. C.... x....

    was referring to a video they've watched not the Kurt picture so bye

  31. C.... x....

    thought so :)

  32. C.... x....

    didn't realise the definition of hipster was listening to lana del rey sorry, go and watch more videos on how to wash your hair you greasy no life

  33. x.... s....

    you're calling people a 'hipster faggot' yet your picture is of lana del rey.

  34. C.... x....

    How so?

  35. x.... s....

    oh the irony

  36. T.... ....

    But there are also the fake fans who bitch about how KoL changed their tune and how much they only want them to go back to the old times. I want to see them keep cranking out new tunes from the same sound album after album after album. Half of them probably don't even stand by what they're saying, they just want likes.

  37. H.... L....

    damn sounds good man

  38. D.... ....

    It's a blinding album, better than their first; and they came up with it really quickly.

    D.... ....

    Thanks NME

  39. Z.... ....

    I like how you specifically chose the words to best show your intelligence, wisdom, and over-all maturity. Way to go!

  40. s.... ....

    The Latin ending to this song must have been inspired by Pearl Jam's "Around the Bend".
    They sound so similar

  41. l.... O....

    isnt that a bit presumptuous?

  42. D.... ....

    Sweet baby Jesus that ending is beautiful!

  43. E.... L....

    I love the ending so much.

  44. R.... F....

    concord!

  45. b.... k....

    right!

  46. j.... j....

    the end bit is crazy. all of their stuff is great!

  47. D.... ....

    Pub band to stadium band?

  48. 7.... ....

    thats usually the same for every other band

  49. H.... ....

    I'm currently listening to every damn songs to their and my favourite is still Pyro.

  50. G.... ....

    I think it's the "slicking up" that makes people think they're not as original anymore. Stuff like the screaming in Charmer was what made KOL what they were, and they've sort of lost that now. Don't get me wrong though. I love their new stuff. Especially Pyro.

  51. d.... ....

    i can hear little bits of "use somebody" or "pyro" in pretty much every kings of leon song i've heard. i don't think their new sound isn't THAT different, they just took what they naturally do - jared's melodic bass, nathan's rolling drums, caleb's ringing cords and matthew's bouncing fills - and slicked it up a little bit. great song from a great band

  52. i.... ....

    Thank you for this comment.

  53. s.... ....

    Yea but the real gems are from when they weren't even a band at all! You're not a fan until you've heard that stuff.

  54. C.... ....

    Why don't they play the part from 2:47?

  55. u.... ....

    Am I the only one who likes all of their albums??

  56. j.... h....

    your not much of a fan then with a attitude like that. atlest your fav band are being heard one way or another? you should respect that not hate on people liking there new sound and saying there real fans! you said you was a real fan the moment you got into them regardless to there past records or if they had any. now pipe down.

  57. t.... ....

    Newer stuff is still good, but the old stuff is absolutely great. The sounds are chalk and cheese.

  58. K.... R....

    Are you too good to tango with the poor, poor boys?

  59. A.... B....

    I laugh at people who turn their backs on a band just because their music style is changing. Just because they were hardcore rock band back in the day, and now they are getting back to their indie-rock roots like they orginally were in the UK everyone thinks that music sucks, well if you are a true KOL fan then you know that bands change and that KOL is good as hardcore rockers or as Indie because they have Caleb writing their songs.

  60. A.... ....

    I LOVE THIS OMOGMGOMGOGOG

  61. C.... T....

    KOL 4ever

  62. A.... Z....

    oh god, who cares? as long as they appreciate the music WHO GIVES A FUCK?

  63. h.... ....

    god this takes me back, we used to go to the woods light a fire pump some kings of leon and get hammered, ah to be 17 again....man i sound old lol.

  64. U.... ....

    Alright buster, listen up. If someone is a fan of Sex on Fire and Use Somebody, then you don't think they're should consider themselves fans of Kings Of Leon? Sure, it might be a little annoying that they haven't bothered to look up any of their other works, but I find your attitude to be far more annoying. Why not let them enjoy music in their own way, 'k? If you think they would enjoy Kings of Leon's older stuff, simply suggest they listen. don't laugh in their face like an ass

  65. p.... m....

    i miss these guys :')

  66. m.... ....

    ok im tired of ppl like u who claims "im the true fan cuz i kno theyre old shit n ur not bcz u only know sex on fire n use somebody". u prolly just found out bout kol the same time as most of us did.
    n so wut if sum ppl like "sex on fre" or "use somebody" or any other songs in their new albums. y dont u just stop hating n shut the fuck up.old albums or new, were still fans,well at least in different way
    i really like their latest 3 albums,have to take a dose of em every hour. I AM a kol fan fool

  67. N.... ....

    I like every album they have released, I am a true fan.

  68. M.... ....

    Older stuff had more of an indie vibe, their new stuff has more of a 'stadium rock' vibe. Both are brilliant in their own right I reckon.

  69. P.... ....

    @gusparraca thats part of the charm, its raw, its rock and roll, not some studio produced shit.

  70. R.... T....

    This is my favourite kings of leon song by far, so uplifting

  71. P.... P....

    "Rise & shine all ya gold digging mothers, are you too good to tango with the poor poor boys".... favorite part

  72. S.... ....

    What happened? I didn't hear their first album until i was familiar with their radio stuff.... I nearly cried over the wasted potential when I heard this song....

  73. g.... ....

    first time i heard this, i thought it was poorly recorded

  74. O.... L....

    I only like the ending part,, but love them,, xx

  75. C.... C....

    Their older stuff is the stuff they need to be playing more of.
