Hurry up, well it's gettin' awful late
Well I told you when I walked you home
And I told you on the telephone
That I'd be here at a quarter to nine
Oh little girl ain't you ever on time
Nothin' bugs me baby like a-havin' to wait
But it always seems to happen everytime we have a date
Hurry up, well c'mon let's go
Hurry up, we'll be late for the show
Hurry up, oh yeah, hurry up
We got to the movie baby wouldn't you know
The only seats I saw were in the very last row
I there sat down and I tried to watch the show
When you look at your watch, you say c 'mon let's go
