Lazy Bones Songtext
von Don Redman

Ah, 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 noonday sun


Ah, lazybones, sleeping in the shade
How you 'spect to get your corn meal made
Never get your corn meal made
Sleeping in that evening shade

When 'taters need sprayin′, I bet you keep prayin′
The bugs fall off of the vine
And when you go fishin', I bet you keep wishin′
The fish won't grab at your line

Ah, you lazybones, loafin′ through the day
How you 'spect to make a dime that way
Never make a dime that way
You never heard a word I say
