A Lazy Farmer Boy - Buster Carter/Joseph Falcon[00:00:00]
I'll sing a little song but it ain't very long[00:00:12]
About a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn[00:00:15]
And why it was I never could tell[00:00:17]
For that young man was always well[00:00:20]
That young man was always well[00:00:22]
He planted his corn on June the last[00:00:37]
In July it was up to his eye[00:00:39]
In September there came a big frost[00:00:42]
And all that young man's corn was lost[00:00:44]
All that young man's corn was lost[00:00:46]
He started to the field and got there at last[00:01:01]
The grass and weeds was up to his chin[00:01:03]
The grass and weeds had grown so high[00:01:05]
It caused that poor man for to sigh[00:01:07]
Caused that poor man for to sigh[00:01:10]
Now his courtship had just begun[00:01:24]
She said young man have you hoed your corn[00:01:27]
I've tried I've tried I've tried in vain[00:01:29]
But I don't believe I'll raise one grain[00:01:31]
Don't believe I'll raise one grain[00:01:33]
Why do you come to me to wed[00:01:47]
If you can't raise your own cornbread[00:01:50]
Single I am and will remain[00:01:52]
For a lazy man I won't maintain[00:01:54]
A lazy man I won't maintain[00:01:56]
He hung his head and walked away[00:02:10]
Saying kind miss you'll rue the day[00:02:13]
You'll rue the day that you were born[00:02:15]
For giving me the devil 'cause I wouldn't hoe my corn[00:02:17]
Giving me the devil 'cause I wouldn't hoe my corn[00:02:19]
Now his courtship was to an end[00:02:33]
On his way he then began[00:02:35]
Saying kind miss I'll have another girl[00:02:38]
If I have to ramble this big wide world[00:02:40]
If I have to ramble this big wide world[00:02:42]
