[Verse 1]
Lazybones, sleepin' in the sun
How you spect to get your day's work done?
You can't get your day's work done
Lyin' in the noon day sun

[Verse 2]
Lazybones, sleepin' in the shade
How you gonna get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Lyin' in the noon day sun

[Refrain]
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs'll fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
Them fish don't grab your line

[Verse 3]
Lazybones, loafin' through the day
How you spect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
You never hear a word I say

[Refrain]
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs'll fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
Them fish don't grab your line
[Verse 3]
Lazybones, loafin' through the day
How you spect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
You never hear a word I say
You'll never make a dime that way
You never hear a word I say
