30 Jun 97 - 01:50 PM (#7760) Subject: RE: Lazy Bones From: Mountain Dog Dear Coralena, You might also check out Leon Redbone's version of this great oldie. It's on an early (his first?) album of his on Warner Bros. records and could probably be tracked down at a used record store. As I recall, the same album has his version of "Polly Wolly Doodle", too. Good luck! |

LAZY BONES
Lazy Bones, sleepin' in the sun
Lazy Bones, sleepin' in the shade
[bridge]
Lazy Bones, loafin' through the day
When taters need sprayin'
Lazy Bones, loafin' through the day |

08 Jul 97 - 03:34 PM (#8236) Subject: RE: Lazy Bones From: Joe Offer That recording was by Kay Starr, but my typing fingers aren't cooperating today. Hey, how does a person get a line feed around here nowadays? I usually type lyrics into MS Word and then paste into this little box here. How can I make it come out right? -Joe, in search of another line- Oh, and I'm still looking for the lyrics to Goin' Home. If somebody finds them, please post. You come back two years later and fix 'em yerself! |

05 Aug 12 - 02:24 PM (#3386517) Subject: RE: Lyr Req: Lazy Bones (Mercer, Carmichael) From: GUEST,Stan Finding the chords to the bridge is difficult on line because the good versions want you to pay. Lots of 1st pages but the bridge is usually on page 2. The 1st published key appears to be C and I found this; |Am/Dm/|Am/Dm/|C/Gdim/|C/C7/| |F/Eb/|D7/G7/|D7///|G7///| One beat for each chord and slash. There is a version by Leon Redbone which he does in A which, transposed to C, goes; |F/F6|C///|F9/Eb dim/|C///| |C/B7/|Bb7/A7/|F9/Ab7/|G7///| Hope this helps. |
