lyrics

Lazy Woman
I need a lazy woman,
lay around the house with me
I don’t want nobody, when I lay around
Makes me feel guilty
I don’t want nobody with some energy
I want to her to move slow, slower than me
I need a lazy woman lay around the house with me

Once I had a woman, let me tell you
She was too darn fast for me
She would set her alarm, she would ever never,
Never ever, let it ring
You know even if I was to set an alarm
I wouldn’t get up if the bed was warm
I need a lazy woman to lay around the house with me

You lazy, lazy people, up the lazy river with you
I’d like to get us all together. We could all hang around
With nothing to do
You know once I notion to get up and work
It was in the middle of the night. It was much too dark
So I just went back to bed and I never did nothin’ at all

I don’t want to argue but I don’t’ believe that industry pays
You can lose your money and your honey
And your vitalist organs can go separate ways
I guess it’s human to be in the race
But don’t forget where the turtle placed
Anyways living or dying
You’re bound to do some layin’ around

J.W. McClure Seattle, Washington

J.W. McClure lives in Stanwood, Washington. This is a career restarted for me. In the 1970’s I was often an opening act at the Washington D.C. clubs, The Cellar Door and The Childe Harold for Tom Paxton, Dave Van Ronk, Tom Rush and many well known bands. In the 1980’s I returned to Washington to do folk music, satire and stand-up comedy before getting swamped by family and other work. ... more
