04 Oct 00 - 12:54 PM (#311986) Subject: It's My Lazy Day From: Uncle_DaveO Debbie McClatchey sings a song Called It's My Lazy Day. It was written by Smiley Burnett for Gene Autrey, the cowboy movie star. Part of it goes like pretty much like this: Well, I might've gone fishin' Got to thinkin' it over Well, the road to the river Is a mighty long way. There's no rhyme and no reason It must be the season Takin' it easy It's my lazy day. If anyone can provide the rest of the lyrics I'd much appreciate it. It's a nice song. Dave Oesterreich |

Back in the Saddle Again is/was a good song, but not the song I asked about. The song I want is "It's My Lazy Day", containing the verse I quoted. Dave Oesterreich |

Well, never mind callin' 'cause I ain't a-comin'. Just pass on by me. Stay out of my way, 'Cause a little deep thinkin' might drive me to drinkin'. Just takin' it easy. It's my lazy day. I'm findin' it easy to mind my own business. I'm keepin' my nose out of ev'ryone's way. I'm takin' no orders. Ain't hirin' no people. Just takin' it easy. It's my lazy day. Ain't askin' no questions. Givin' no advices. Ain't datin' no women. Ain't wantin' to play. Just a-gonna look stupid. Don't want to meet cupid. Just takin' it easy. It's my lazy day.

She said she made a big hit with this song in Scotland on her recent tour. Seems she sang for a fishing club, and they loved the song. They invited her to go fishing during her next visit. Debby uses more-or-less the same lyrics Jim posted, but she uses the first verse as a chorus. -Joe- |
