Accompaniment by James Pitt-Payne:
Lyrics
You keep me waitin’ till it’s gettin’ aggravatin’
You’re a slow coach
I wait ‘n’ worry but you never seem to hurry
You’re a slow coach
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 coach
Why can’t you hasten when you see the time’s a wastin’
You’re a slow coach, 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 coach, too
