A Lazy Farmer - carter/皓天[00:00:00]
I'll sing a little song[00:00:12]
But it ain't very long[00:00:13]
About a lazy farmer who[00:00:15]
Wouldn't hoe his corn[00:00:16]
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[00:00:40]
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[00:00:47]
He started to the field[00:01:01]
And got there at last[00:01:02]
The grass and weeds was up to his chin[00:01:04]
The grass and weeds had grown so high[00:01:06]
It caused that poor man for to sigh[00:01:08]
Caused that poor man for to sigh[00:01:10]
Now his courtship had just begun[00:01:25]
She said Young man have you hoed your corn[00:01:27]
I've tried I've tried I've tried in vain[00:01:30]
But I don't believe I'll raise one grain[00:01:31]
Don't believe I'll raise one grain[00:01:34]
Why do you come to me to wed[00:01:48]
If you can't raise your own cornbread[00:01:50]
Single I am and will remain[00:01:53]
For a lazy man I won't maintain[00:01:55]
A lazy man I won't maintain[00:01:57]
He hung his head and walked away[00:02:11]
Saying Kind miss you'll rue the day[00:02:14]
You'll rue the day that you were born[00:02:16]
For giving me the devil[00:02:18]
Cause I wouldn't hoe my corn[00:02:19]
Giving me the devil cause[00:02:20]
I wouldn't hoe my corn[00:02:21]
Now his courtship was to an end[00:02:34]
On his way he then began[00:02:36]
Saying Kind miss I'll have another girl[00:02:39]
If I have to ramble this big wide world[00:02:41]
If I have to ramble this big wide world[00:02:43]
