Slowpoke Songtext
von Pee Wee King

You keep me waitin′ till it's gettin′ aggravatin', you're a slow poke
You wait and worry but I never seem to hurry, I′m a slow poke
Time means nothin′ to you, I wait (you 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 I hasten when I see the time′s a-wastin'? I′m a slow poke, dear
Why should I keep tryin' to change you? It's not the thing to do
Here′s the thing to do-I guess you′ll have to learn to be a slow poke, too (slow
Poke, too)

(Slow poke, slow poke, I'm a silly old slow poke)


We keep on waitin′ till it's gettin′ aggravatin', what a slow poke
We wait and worry but there′s never any hurry, what a slow poke
Time means nothin', you see, we 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? (slow
Poke)
Why can′t you hasten when you see the time's a-wastin′? You're a slow poke,
Dear
Why do you keep tryin′ to change me? It's not the thing to do
Then I guess I′ll have to learn to be a silly old slow poke, too

Slow poke, slow poke, you're a silly old slow poke
Slow poke, slow poke, I'm a silly old slow poke
Slow poke!
