Howshirl Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 I know 95% of the lyrics to a song about a slowpoke, but not the title. Words start " You keep me waiting til it's getting aggravating, you're a slowpoke" Does anyone know the title? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MindCrime Posted July 12, 2004 Report Share Posted July 12, 2004 It appears to be a foreign song (maybe?) the song title is Slow Poke, but nothing could be found on the singer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uncle Joe Posted July 15, 2004 Report Share Posted July 15, 2004 ...and if you like Slow Poke you're sure to love Lazy Bones. Leon Redbone has a great version of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
