"Lord Don't Slow Me Down" is a song by English rock band Oasis. The song was released as a download-only single on 21 October 2007 and was also released on a limited edition 12-inch single in promotion of the release of Oasis' rockumentary of the same name, Lord Don't Slow Me Down.^[2][3] The song debuted at number ten in the UK Singles Chart, becoming Oasis' 21st UK top 10 and first single by the band not to reach the top 4 since 1994's "Cigarettes & Alcohol".^[4] It was also Oasis' first stand alone non-album single since "Whatever" in 1994.

Written and sung by Noel Gallagher, Gallagher described it as being "one of the best things, like The Who, The Yardbirds and the Jeff Beck Group combined, and it's got two drum solos on it!". Recorded during the Don't Believe the Truth sessions, the song was likely originally intended to be included on said album, but was removed from the final track list by Gallagher. In May 2008, an unreleased studio version with Liam Gallagher on lead vocals was leaked online.

This song was later included on Dig Out Your Soul bonus CD. Oasis never played the song live while the band was together, but Noel has since performed the song twice with his solo band Noel Gallagher's High Flying Birds.
