[Verse 1]
Sitting by the roadside on a summer day
Sitting by the roadside passing time away
Sitting yeah thinking about things I oughta do
So doggone tired I just can't move

[Chorus]
Lazy lazy me
Lazy as can be
Please I wanna go home
Sit down under shade tree and rest my bones
Sit down under shade tree and rest my bones

[Verse 2]
Well my ma and my pa done give me the boot
Heard ma tell pa I wasn't worth a hoot
Didn't like to hold taters didn't like to push plows
Guess I'll never ever be no good no how

[Chorus]
Lazy lazy me
Lazy as can be
Pleasе I wanna go home
Sit down under shade tree and rеst my bones
Sit down under shade tree and rest my bones
[Verse 3]
Well I got me a job and I work Tuesdays
Then the boss come around and here's what he says
Don't mind you being late don't mind you being slow
But doing nothing son just ain't gonna go

[Chorus]
Lazy lazy me
Lazy as can be
Please I wanna go home
Sit down under shade tree and rest my bones
Sit down under shade tree and rest my bones
