Slowpoke Songtext
von Pee Wee King

You keep me waitin′ till it's gettin′ aggravatin'
You're a slow poke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You′re a slow poke
Time means nothin′ to you
I wait and then
Late again
Eight o'clock, nine o′clock, quarter to ten


Why should I linger every time you snap your finger
Little slow poke
Why can't you hasten when you see that time′s a-wastin'
You′re a slow poke, dear
Why should I keep tryin' to change you
It's not the thing to do
I guess I′ll have to learn to be a slow poke too

You keep me waitin′ till it's gettin′ aggravatin'
You′re a slow poke
I wait and worry but you never seem to hurry
You're a slow poke
Time means nothin′ to you
I wait and then
Late again
Eight o'clock, nine o'clock, quarter to ten


Why should I linger every time you snap your finger
Little slow poke
Why can′t you hasten when you see that time′s a-wastin'
You′re a slow poke, dear
Why should I keep tryin' to change you
It′s not the thing to do
I guess I'll have to learn to be a slow poke too
