Lazy Lyrics
[Instrumental intro 0:00-4:21]
[Verse 1]
You're lazy, you just stay in bed
You're lazy, just stay in bed
You don't want no money, you don't want no bread, no
If you're drowning, you don't clutch no straw, no, no
If you're drowning, you don't clutch no straw
You don't want to live, don't want to cry no more
[Harmonica Interlude]
[Verse 2]
Well, my crying ain't done no good
I said my trying ain't done no good
You don't make no effort, no, not like you should
Lazy, you just stay in bed
Lazy, you just stay in bed
You don't want no money, you don't want no bread
[Instrumental outro 5:53-7:22]
