[Verse 1]
G           G7             
You keep me waitin' 'til it's 
   G              G7
gettin' aggravatin'
         D7       D    D7   D
You're a slow poke
  D7       D              D7     
I wait and worry, but you never 
       D
seem to hurry
         G         G7    G
You're a slow poke
G7                           C   
Time means nothin' to you, I wait
     (C)
 and then
A     A7
Late again
D7             Am7           D  
Eight o'clock, nine o'clock, 
        D7
quarter to ten

[Verse 2]
G            G7           G     
Why should I linger every time 
             G7
you snap your finger?
       D7       D    D7   D
Little slow poke
D7            D               D7
Why can't you hasten when you 
               D
see the time's a-wastin'?
         G    G7    G
You're a slow poke, dear

Continues after the ad
[Chorus]
C                   F7           
  Why should I keep tryin' to 
          G
change you?
                      E   E7
It's not the thing to do
  Am7                              
I guess I'll have to learn to be a 
D7       (G)
slow poke too
