Boy, what's the matter with you? You ain't got no pep at all today!
I always gets tired when it gets hot like this, you know.
You is lazy
Is I?
You jes' natch'ully lazy!
That's what's the matter with me?
You doing nothing all the day.
No, I don't never do nothing.
You is loafin' on the levee.
Yeah!
Was you born that way?
Yeah, I was born just like I is now, just like I is.
I know, but you is lazy!
Yeah.
Just look at you, you jes' natch'ully lazy.
Yeah, I'm lazy!
Sitting there watching them muddy waters play.
Yeah.
'Cause you're heart's never heavy.
Oh, no.
Tell me, boy, was you born that way?
Just like I is now, just like I is.
Now, look here with that chicken so sweet
Chicken!
And gravy five inches deep
Good gravy!
The kind that melts right in your mouth.
Great Caesar!
You sleep 'til you eat
Loves to sleep.
You eat 'til you sleep
Eat, too.
That's your busy day down South.
Busy sleepin'.
You'se lazy
Yeah, I is.
Jes' natch'ully lazy
Hmmm-hmmm-hmmm.
Down in Dixie let him stay
Oh, what's that?
Lordy, but he's lucky, he was born that way
