[00:04.30]Pick Up The Tempo
[00:08.75]Waylon Jennings
[00:10.34]
[00:58.22]Some people are saying that time
[01:01.28]Will take care of people like me
[01:04.85]
[01:07.85]That I'm living too fast
[01:10.04]And they say I can't last much longer.
[01:13.80]
[01:16.93]But little they see
[01:18.74]That their thoughts of me is my saviour
[01:22.37]
[01:25.74]And little they know
[01:27.49]I might live forever.
[01:30.99]
[01:33.99]So pick up the tempo just a little
[01:37.36]And take it on home
[01:39.86]
[01:42.61]The singer ain't singin'
[01:44.68]And the drummer's been draggin' too long.
[01:48.18]
[01:51.43]Time'll take care of itself
[01:54.24]So just leave time alone
[01:56.68]
[01:59.86]And pick up the tempo just a little
[02:03.17]And take it on home.
[02:05.24]
[02:08.11]I'm wild and I'm mean
[02:10.11]I'm creatin' a scene I'm goin' crazy
[02:14.67]
[02:16.74]I'm good and I'm bad
[02:18.88]And I'm happy and sad and I'm lazy.
[02:22.94]
[02:25.32]I'm quiet and I'm loud
[02:27.51]and I'm gatherin' a crowd and I like gravy
[02:32.44]
[02:33.88]About half off the wall
[02:36.20]but I learned it all in the Navy.
[02:39.90]
[02:42.39]So pick up the tempo just a little
[02:45.89]And take it on home
[02:48.01]
[02:50.77]The singer ain't singin'
[02:52.89]And the drummer's been draggin' too long
[02:56.58]
[02:59.33]Time'll take care of itself
[03:02.39]So just leave time alone
[03:04.89]
[03:07.83]And pick up the tempo just a little
[03:11.33]And take it on home.
[03:13.45]
[03:16.02]Yeah, pick up the tempo just a little
[03:19.64]And take it on home
[03:22.64]
[03:24.27]
