Lazy Bones
Lazy bones, sleepin' in the sunHow you 'spect to get your day's work done?Never get your day's work doneSleepin' in the noon day sunNow, lazy bones, sleepin' in the shadeHow you expect to get your corn meal made?You'll never get your corn meal madeJust sleepin' in the evening shadeWhen tainers need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'The bugs'll fall off the vineAnd when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'The fish won't grab your lineNow, lazy bones, loafin' through the dayHow you 'xpect to make a dime that way?You'll never make a dime that wayNever heard a word I sayNow when tainers need sprayin', I bet you keep prayin'That the bugs'll fall off the vineAnd when you go fishin' I bet you keep wishin'That the cat fish drops your lineLazy bones, loafin' through the dayHow you 'xpect to get a dime that way?You'll never make a dime that wayNow look here, never heard a word I say
