[Intro]
Bm7
[Verse 1]
Bm7 G Tell you a little story and it won't take long A Bm7 'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn Bm7 G The reason why I never could tell A Bm7 That young man was always well
[Verse 2]
Bm7 G He planted his corn in the month of June A Bm7 By July it was up to his eyes Bm7 G Come September there came a big frost A Bm7 G A Bm7 G A Bm7 And all the young man's corn was lost
[Verse 3]
Bm7 G His courtship had just begun A Bm7 Said young man, "Have you hauled some corn?" Bm7 G "Well I tried and I tried and I tried in vain, A Bm7 G A Bm7 G A Bm7 But I don't believe I raised one grain."
[Verse 4]
Bm7 G He went down town to his neighbor's door A Bm7 Where he had often been before Bm7 G Sayin "Pretty little miss will you marry me, A Bm7 G A Bm7 G A Bm7 Little miss what do you say?"
[Verse 5]
Bm7 G "Why do you come for me to wed? A Bm7 You can't even make your own cornbread Bm7 G Single I am and will remain. A Bm7 A lazy man I won't maintain."
[Verse 6]
Bm7 G He turned his back and walked away A Bm7 Sayin "Little miss you'll rue the day. Bm7 G You'll rue the day that you were born A Bm7 Givin me the devil cause I wouldn't hoe corn."
