People are saying that time Will take care of people like me I'm living too fast They say I can't last much longer But little they see Their thoughts of me are my savior And little they know That the beat oughta go just a little faster So pick up the tempo just a little And take it on home The singer ain't singin' And the drummer's been draggin' too long Time'll take care of itself So just leave time alone Pick up the tempo just a little And take it on home Well I'm wild and I'm mean I'm creatin' a scene I'm goin' crazy I'm good and I'm bad I'm happy and sad and I'm lazy I'm quiet and I'm loud And I'm gatherin' a crowd, I like gravy About half off the wall But I learned it all in the Navy So pick up the tempo just a little And take it on home The singer ain't singin' And the drummer's been draggin' too long Time'll take care of itself So just leave time alone And pick up the tempo just a little And take it on home Oh man All right! Thank you, Bruce!
