lyrics

Lazy John 
(Traditional)

I got a gal, she lives up the road
Eyes are crooked and her legs is bowed
But we sure have a lot of fun
Won't you go away lazy John

chorus
  Lazy John, lazy John
  Won't you get your day's work all done
  You're in the shade, I'm in the sun
  Won't you go away lazy John

Goin' to a dance on Saturday night
Goin' to dance 'til the mornng light
Then I'm gonna bring my little baby home
Won't you go away lazy John
chorus

Every night when I get home
Peas in the pot and an old jaw bone
Here today, tomorrow you’re gone
Won’t you go away Lazy John
chorus

Work all week in the noon day sun
Fifteen cents when the week is done
Going to town going to have some fun
Won’t you go away Lazy John
chorus
