Leon Redbone - Lazybones
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the sunHow you expect to get your day's work done?
You never get your day's work done
Lyin' in the noon day sun
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the shade
How you gon' get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Lyin' in the noon day shade
When taters need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'
The bugs fall off the vine
When you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'
The fish don't grab at your line
Lazy bones, loafin' through the day
How'd you expect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
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 don't grab at your line
Lazy bones, loafin' through the day
How'd you expect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
You never heard a word I say
