I like lazy weather, I like lazy days
Can't be blamed for having lazy ways
Some old lazy river sleeps beside my door
Whisp'ring to the sunlit shore
Up a lazy river by the old mill run
Lazy river in the noon day sun
Linger awhile in the shade of a tree
Throw away your troubles
Dream with me
Up a lazy river where the robin’s song
Wakes the mornin’
We’ll roll along
May be blue skies ’bove
Everyone’s in love
Up a lazy river
How happy we’ll be
Up a lazy river with me
Up a lazy river by the old mill run
That lazy lazy river in the noon day sun
You can linger for awhile in the shade of a tree
Throw away your troubles baby
Dream a dream of me
Up a lazy river where the robin’s song
Wakes a brand new mornin’
Where we can roll along
There may be blue skies up above
But as long as we’re in love
Yeah we’ll be up a lazy river
How happy we could be
Up a lazy river with me
Oh that half way mark yeah
Up a lazy river where that robin’s song
Awakes a brand new mornin’
We can roll along
There are blue skies up above
And as long as we’re in love
We’ll be up a lazy river
Up a crazy lazy river
Up a lazy river
I ain’t goin’ your way get out of my way
Up a lazy river with me
