Laziest Gal In Town

It's not 'cause I wouldn't

It's not 'cause I shouldn't

And, you know darn well, it's not 'cause I couldn't

It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town

My poor heart is achin'

To bring home some bacon

And if I find myself alone and forsaken

It's simply because, I'm the laziest gal in town

Though I'm more than willing to learn

How these gals get so much extra money to burn

Every little proposition I just turn it down

Way down, yeah

It's not 'cause I wouldn't

It's not 'cause I shouldn't, honey

And you know, that it's not 'cause I couldn't

It's simply because I'm the laziest, the laziest gal in town
