lyrics

laying by the river with no hook on my line
haven't had a haircut since 1969
just above my head a wren singin somethin sweet
be happy to do anything but stand up on my feet

lazy you might say but there's nothin to do
had all my employment and had me all my school
now I'm just here now I'm just here

2.
layin by the river with no list of to-dos
been there and done that and paid me on my dues
a cloud drifted by just a little while ago
took the shape of somethin I didn't need to know

lazy you might say but there's nothin to do
had all my employment and had me all my school
now I'm just here now I'm just here

3.
layin by the river with the shade on my face
wouldn't wanna have to get up and go some place
half a mile away I hear that dinner call
guess I'm gonna have to get up after all

lazy you might say but there's nothin to do
had all my employment and had me all my school
now I'm just here now I'm just here

4. layin by the river waitin for the sun
to settle in the west phasin out another one
I'll be back tomorrow I might have to miss the race
cosying up on over here in my favorite space

lazy you might say but there's nothin to do
had all my employment and had me all my school
now I'm just here now I'm just here

laying by the river with no hook on my line
haven't had a haircut since 1969
