Lời & hợp âm

[Verse 1]
[D]Get up, Lazy Willie,
there's work to be [A]done[D]
Out of seventeen kids you're
[Am]the laziest [D]one
Pigs in the kitchen
and the roosters in [Am]the pig sty
[D]And weeds in the garden busy
growin' up knee [G]high

[Verse 2]
[G]Lazy Willie, look at you,
ain't you [D]a sight?
Tuh- tuh- twee, tuh- twee- dee- twee,
tuh- tuh- twee
[G]Lazy [D]Wil[G]lie, sleep all day and
play all [D]night
Um- hmm- mm, umm

[Verse 3]
Get up, [D]Lazy Willie,
[Am]up and outta that bed
There's [D]cows to be milked
and [Am]the mules to be fed
[D]Thin the corn, har[Am]vest the soybeans
And [D]help me set the table for our
[Am]comp'ny from New Orleans
[D]

[Verse 4]
[G]Lazy Willie,
wake up you ain't heard a word I [D]said
Tuh- tuh- twee, tuh- twee- dee- twee,
tuh- tuh- twee
[G]Lazy [Em]Willi[G]e,
you gotta get up in time to go [D]to bed
Um- hmm, umm

[Verse 5]
[D]Don't you remember, Lazy Willie,
what Momma used [Am]to s[D]ay?
That all summer long the
grasshopper [Am]would [D]play
The ant would work hard storin'
up his winter [Am]supply
When the [D]snow came ant lived,
the grasshopper [G]died

[Verse 6]
[G]Lazy Willie, well ants work hard and
grasshoppers [D]play
Tuh- tuh- twee, tuh- twee- dee- twee,
tuh- tuh- twee
Oh, [G]Lazy Willie, you're gonna sprout
green legs and hop [D]away

[Outro 1]
Gonna ha- ha- hop away
[D]
