You keep me waitin' Till it's gettin' aggravatin' You're a slowpoke I wait and worry But you never seem to hurry You're a slowpoke. Time means nothing to you I wait and then late again Eight o'clock, nine o'clock Quarter to ten. Why should I linger Everytime you snap your finger Little slowpoke Why can't you hasten When you see the time's a wastin' You're a slowpoke, dear. Why should I keep trying to change you It's not the thing to do I guess I'll have to learn to be A slowpoke too. --- Instrumental --- You keep me waitin' Till it's gettin' aggravatin' You're a slowpoke I wait and worry But you never seem to hurry You're a slowpoke.
