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, 
Little 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! 

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,

Slow poke.
