Pick Up The Tempo Lyrics

Won't you pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
The singer ain't singing
And the drummer's been draggin' too long

And time will take care of itself
So just leave time alone
And pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home

Now people are saying
That time'll take care of people like me
That I'm living too fast
And they say that I can't last much longer

But how little they see
That their thoughts of me is my Savior
And how little they know
That the beat ought to go a little faster

So won't you pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
The singer ain't singing
And the drummer's been draggin' too long

Now time will take care of itself
So just leave time alone
And pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home

Now I'm wild and I'm mean
I'm creating a scene, I'm goin' crazy
Well, I'm good and I'm bad
And I'm happy and sad and I'm lazy

I'm quiet and I'm loud
And I'm gatherin' a crowd and I like gravy
'Bout half off the wall
But I learned it all from my baby

So won't you pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
The singer ain't singing
And the drummer's been draggin' too long

Now time will take care of itself
So just leave time alone
And pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home

Aey, won't you pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
Aey, won't you pick up the tempo just a little
And take it on home
