Lyrics Speedo - Ry Cooder

Speedo

They often call me Speedo but I don’t believe in wastin' time
(Time don’t believe in wastin' time)
I’ve known some pretty women and I’ve caused them to change their mind
(Mind, change their mind)
Well some they call me Moe and some they call me Joe
But just remember Speedo, he don’t never take it slow
Now they often call me Speedo but my real name is Mr. Earl
(Earl, Mr. Earl) That’s what I said it now
They often call me Speedo but my real name is Mr. Earl
(Earl, Mr. Earl) Mr. Earl
Now I’m just the kind fellow’s always takin' other folks' girls
(Girls, taking their girls)
Yeah they often call me Speedo 'cause I don’t believe in wastin' time
(Time, wastin' time) I don’t believe in wastin' time
They often call me Speedo but I don’t believe in wastin' time
(Time, wastin' time) I don’t believe in wastin' time
Now I’ve known some pretty women and I’ve caused them to change their mind
(Mind, change their mind)
Ooh, honey, here comes that old Mr. Earl again, honey
He’s so fine!
Oh, get on away from here, girl.
I ain’t going to be bothered with you tonight
He can get low down too, a low down son of a bitch
Don’t you be holding on to me now, get away!
Hello, Mr. Earl!
Hey, you look good to me
You too, baby
What’s your name?
My name is Mary Lou
