[Db] [Eb] [Ab]
[Db] Lazybones, [Ab] sleeping [Db] in the sun, [Ab] how you [Eb] think you're gonna [Ab] get your day's work done?
[F] You never get your day's [Bbm] work [Bb] done,
[Eb] sleeping in the [Ab] noonday sun.
[Db] Lazybones, [Ab] sleeping in the [Db] shade, [Ab] how you gonna [Eb] get [Ab] your cornmeal made?
[Eb] You [F] never get your [Bb] cornmeal made, [Eb] sleeping in the [Ab] noonday shade.

day, [Ab] how you think [Eb] you're gonna make [Ab] a dime that way?

[Db] I'd like to tell you folks a [Ab] tale about a certain guy.
[Db]
[Ab] He's never done a full day's [Eb] work, and that, friends, ain't [Ab] no lie.
When he was [Fm] just a kid, you know, still lying in his crib, [Bb] he wouldn't shake his rattle.
I ain't aiming none to [Eb] fit.
But I'll bet [Ab] you people won't believe me if I tell you this.
He never went a-swimming, nor pretty girls he didn't kiss.
[Db] You see, the effort [Ab] he put forth would be [Eb] so weak [Ab] and frail that even though the kid did try, he'd more than [Fm] likely fail.
[Bbm] His folks were both [Bb] disgusted with the lazy little lout, and [Eb] even though they beat him, he never [Ab] did get out.
He grew fast, in [Db] fact, the fastest thing he ever done, and soon he reached the ripe old age of [Ab] forty years and one.
He got a wife to work for him, and even told her how to mop the floor and feed the [Bb] hogs and milk the Jersey cow.
[Eb] [Fm] He taught her all the chores around, the chores he should have [Eb] done, while he'd just sit around the home and [Ab] she was on the run.
[Db]
Come mealtime, [Ab] though, he'd be as prompt as six o'clock and stuff [Eb] himself.
Yes, he'd eat [Ab] far more than all the farming stock.
But he's older now [Fm] and aging fast, still [Bbm] he don't [Bb] have to cry, cause [Bbm] when his master [Eb] calls for him, he'll be too lazy to [Ab] die.
