[Verse 1]
Lazy bones (Lazy bones), sleepin' in the sun
How you expect to get your day's work done?
Never get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the noonday sun

[Verse 2]
Lazy bones (Lazy bones), sleepin' in the shade
How you expect to get your corn meal made?
Never get your corn meal made
Sleepin' in the evening shade

[Bridge]
When taters need sprayin'
I bet you'll be prayin'
The bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin'
I bet you'll be wishin'
Fish jump on the line

[Verse 3]
Lazy bonеs (Lazy bones), dozin' through the day
How you expеct to make a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
When taters need sprayin'
I bet you'll be prayin'
The bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin'
I bet you'll be wishin'
Fish will jump on the line

[Verse 4]
Lazy bones (Lazy bones), dozin' through the day
How you expect to make a dime that way?
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say

[Outro]
Never make a dime...
Never heard a word I say
