(G#m)Ev'ry(G)thing is (C)fine

You got no (A7)time to work, you got no time to play
You're (D7)busy doin' nothing all the lifelong (G7)day
But you won't (A7)ever change, no matter what I say
(D7)You just made that (G7)way

   When them po(F)tatoes need sprayin'
   I know you keep prayin'
   That the (C)bugs fall (G)off (C)their vine                             
   And (F9)when you  go (Eb9)fishing
   I (D9)bet you keep (G9)wishing
   The (Dm)fish won't grab at your (G7)line

(You know) (C)lazy (F)bones, (C)loafin' all the (F)day
