Pick Up The Tempo

Won't you pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

The singer ain't singin'

And the drummers been draggin' too long

And time will take care of itself

So just leave time alone

Yeah, and pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

Now people are sayin' that time will take care of people like me

That I'm movin' too fast and they say that I can't last much longer

But how little they see that their thoughts of me...

And how little they know that the beat oughta go a little faster

So won't you pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

The singer ain't singin'

And the drummers been draggin' too long

And time will take care of itself

So just leave time alone

Yeah, and pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

Now I'm wild and I'm mean

And I'm creatin' a scene like I'm crazy

Well I'm good and I'm bad

And I'm happy and I'm sad and I'm lazy

I'm quiet and I'm loud

And I'm gatherin' a crowd

So won't you pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

The singer ain't singin'

And the drummers 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

Won't you pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home

Yeah, won't you pick up the tempo just a little

And take it on home
