Slow Poke Songtext
von Doris Day

You keep me waitin′ till it's gettin′ aggravatin'
You're a slow poke
I wait n′ 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 ev′ry time you snap your finger
You're a slow poke
Why can′t you hasten when you see the 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

Slow poke
Slow poke
Time means nothin' to you, I wait and then
You late again
Eight o′clock, nine o'clock
Quarter to ten

Why should I linger ev′ry time you snap your finger
You're a slow poke
Why can't you hasten when you see the 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
