I’m a Little Slowpoke! (Tune: I’m a Little Teapot)

Cherry Carl

I’m called a little slowpoke, don’t you know?

That’s because I go so slow.

When I have a race with Happy Hare,

I’m always late, but I get there!

Going for the Gold Cherry Carl

Tortoise spoke to me in greeting,

“Hey, there guy, let’s have a meeting!

I broke my record at a meet.

This slowpoke now has speedy feet!

I’ll be there at the stroke of noon.

So long, pal! I’ll see you soon!

Just ask my friend, old Happy Hare.

He’ll tell you that I will be there!”
