Lyrics
The galvanized steel lip of this can is cold.
It's the last week of the thaw, the air ain't so bold.
I'm just tending the fiddle-leafs here in the back,

[Chorus]
It's a slow pour, baby, a slow pour.

Can't drown the roots before they ask for more.
[Bridge]

Wiping old dust off the greenest thing in this town.
[Outro]
Ask for more...
A slow pour for you...
