Willie Nelson

Pick Up The Tempo-crd

People are sayinâ that time will take care of people like me
That Iâm livinâ too fast, they say I canât last much longer
But little they see that their thoughts of me is my savior
And little they know that the beat ought to go a little faster
Pick up the tempo just a little and bring it on home
The singer ainât singinâ and the drummerâs been dragginâ too long
Time will take care of itself so just leave time alone
Pick up the tempo just a little and bring it on home
(key change)
Well Iâm wild and Iâm mean Iâm creatinâ a scene Iâm goin' crazy
Iâm good and Iâm bad, Iâm happy and Iâm sad and Iâm lazy
Iâm quiet and Iâm loud and Iâm gatherinâ a crowd and I like
gravy
Iâm Îbout half off the wall but I learned it all in the navy
Pick up the tempo just a little and bring it on home
The singer ainât singinâ and the drummerâs been dragginâ too long
Time will take care of itself so just leave time alone
Pick up the tempo just a little and bring it on home
