Lazybones, sleeping in the sun
How you spect to get your days work done?
Never get your days work done
Sleeping in the new days sun

Lazybones, sleepin in the shade
How you spect to get your cornmeal made?
Youll never get your cornmeal made
Just sleepin in the evenin shade

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 wont grab your line

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
