I've got a gal she lives down the road
Her eyes are crooked and her legs are bowed
But she sure is a lot of fun
Why don't you get away lazy John
Lazy John
Lazy John
Why don't you get your days work all done
I'm in the shade you're in the sun
Why don't you get away lazy John
Im gonna dance on a Saturday night
We're gonna dance till the broad day light
Then I'll take my sweetie back home
Why don't you get away lazy John
Lazy John
Lazy John
Why don't you get your days work all done
I'm in the shade and you're in the sun
Why don't you get away lazy John
I woke up at the break of day
Down to the field try to earn my pay
Then on later you came along
Why don't you get away lazy John
Lazy John
Lazy John
Why don't you get your days work all done
I'm in the shade you're in the sun
Why don't you get away lazy John
Lazy John
Lazy John
Why don't you get your days work all done
I'm in the shade you're in the sun
Why don't you get away lazy John
