Lazybones (Remastered) - Hoagy Carmichael
You a good for nothin' lazybones
Long as there was chicken gravy on your rice
Everything is nice
Long as there's a watermelon on the vine
Everything is fine
You got no time to work you got no time to play
You're busy doing nothing all the live long day
But you won't ever change no matter what I say
You're just made that way
Lazybones sleeping in the sun
How you expect to get your day's work done
You'll never get your day's work done
Sleeping in the noonday sun
Lazybones sleeping in the shade
How you expect to get your corn meal made
You'll never get your corn meal made
Sleeping in the evening shade
Now when them taters need sprayin'
I bet you keep prayin'
That the bugs'll fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin'
I bet you keep wishin'
That the fish won't grab at your line
You're an old lazybones loafin' all the day
How you expect to make a dime that way
You'll never make a dime that way
You never hear a word I say
Now when them taters need sprayin'
I know you keep prayin'
That the bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin'
I know you keep wishin'
That the fish won't grab at your line
You're an old lazybones loafin' all the day
Tell me how you expect to make a dime that way
Oh you'll never make a dime that way
Well look at you
You never heed a word I say
Sleeping all the day
You a good for nothin' lazybones
