Lazy John
Work all G#week in the noon day C#sun
Fifteen G#cents when Saturday C#comes
Goin to a G#dance to have some C#fun
Why don't you G#get away lazy C#John?
Lazy F#John lazy G#John
Why don't you get your day's work all C#done
F#You're in the shade and I'm in the G#sun
Why don't you get away lazy C#John?
Every night when I come home
Peas in the pot and the old jawbone
Here today and tomorrow he's gone
Why don't you get away lazy John?
My gal lives at the end of the road
Her teeth are crooked and her legs are bowed
But we sure have a lot of fun
Why don't you get away lazy John?
Goin to a dance Saturday night
Ain't coming home til the broad daylight
Then I'll take my girl back home
Why don't you get away lazy John?
