Lazybones, sleeping in the sun How you 'spect to get your day's work done? Never get your day's work done Sleeping in the noonday sun Lazybones, sleeping in the shade How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made? Never get your corn meal made Sleeping in the evening shade When 'taters need sprayin' I know you keep prayin' The bugs fall off the vine And when you go fishing I bet you keep wishing The fish won't grab at your line Lazybones, loafin' through the day How you 'spect to make a dime that way? Never make a dime that way Never hear a word I say When 'taters need sprayin' I know you keep prayin' The bugs fall off the vine And when you go fishing, I bet you keep wishing The fish won't grab at your line Lazybones, loafin' through the day How you 'spect to make a dime that way? Never make a dime that way, well lookee here Never hear a word I say
