Lyrics
Oh-oh, you a good-for-nothing lazybones Long as there is chicken gravy on your rice Everything is nice As 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 doin' nothing all the livelong 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 'spect to get your day's work done? You'll never get your day's work done Sleeping in the noonday sun Lazy bones, sleeping in the shade How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made? You'll never get your corn meal made Sleeping in the evening shade Now when them 'taters need sprayin' I know you keep prayin' That the bugs fall off their vine And when you go fishing I bet you keep wishing That the fish won't grab at your line You know, lazybones, loafin' all the day How you 'spect to make a dime that way? You'll ever 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 their vine And when you go fishing, I know you keep wishing That the fish won't grab at your line You know, lazybones, loafin' all the day, tell me How you 'spect to make a dime that way? Oh, you'll ever make a dime that way, well lookee here You never heared a word I say A-sleepin' all the day, you a good-for-nothing lazybones
