Lazybones Lyrics - Nellie Mckay

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 

Lazybones, sleeping in the shade 

How you 'spect to get your cornmeal made? 

Never get your corn meal made 

Sleeping in the evening shade 

When 'taters need sprayin' I know you keep prayin' 

The bugs fall off the vine 

And when you go fishing I bet you keep wishing 

The fish won't grab at your line

Lazybones, loafin' through the day 

How you 'spect to make a dime that way? 

Never make a dime that way 

Never hear a word I say 

When 'taters need sprayin' I know you keep prayin' 

The bugs fall off the vine 

And when you go fishing, I bet you keep wishing 

The fish won't grab at your line
