Lazy Bones Songtext
von Leon Redbone

Lazy bones, sleeping in the sun
How you expect to get your day′s work done?
You'll never get your day′s work done
Lying in the noonday sun

Lazy bones, sleeping in the shade
How you gonna get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Lying in the noonday shade


When the taters need spraying
I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishing
I bet you keep wishing
The fish don't grab at your line

Lazy bones, loafing through the day
How you expect to make a dime that way?
You′ll never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say

When the taters need spraying
I bet you keep praying
The bugs fall off the vine
And when you go fishing
I bet you keep wishing
The fish don′t grab at your line


Lazy bones, loafing through the day
How you expect to make a dime that way?
You'll never make a dime that way
Never heard a word I say
