verse 1
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 new day's sun
Verse2
Lazybones sleepin in the shade
How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade
Bridge
When 'taters need spraying I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishin I bet you keep wishin
The fish won't grab your line
verse 3
Lazybones loafing through the day
How you 'spect to get a dime that way
Never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
Repeat verse 1
Lazybones sleepin' in the sun
How you 'spect to get your day's work done
Never get your day's work done
Sleepin' in the new day's sun
