Lazybones

Hoagy Carmichael, Johnny Mercer

Lazy bones, sleepin' in the sun
How you expect to get your day's work done?
You never get your day's work done
Lyin' in the noon day sun

Lazy bones, sleepin' in the shade
How you gon' get your cornmeal made?
You'll never get your cornmeal made
Lyin' in the noon day shade

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

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

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

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