Well now, they often call me Speedo
But my real name is Mr Earl
Umm-hm-hm-hm
Now, they often call me Speedo
But my real name is Mr Earl
Um-hm-hm-hm
Known for meetin' brand new fellas
And takin' other folk's girl
Well now, they often call me Speedo
'Cause I don't believe in wastin' time
Umm-hm-hm

And that's caused them to change their minds
