Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you 'spec' to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the noonday sun
Lazybones, sleepin' in the shade
How you 'spec' to get your corn meal made?
Never get your corn meal made
Snoozin' in the evenin' shade
When 'taters need sprayin'
I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin'
I bet you keep wishin'
The fish won't grab at your line
Lazybones, loafin' through the day
How you 'spec' to make a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Well looky here
He never heard a word that I say!
When 'taters need sprayin'
I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs go on and fall off the vine
And when are fishin'
Ah baby, I know you're wishin'
The fish don't even grab at your line
But you are my lazybones
You're always loafin' through the day
How you ever ever ever ever ever gonna make a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Well look-e here you haven't heard a word that I say!
Guess I love you anyway
