Tell You a little story and it won't take long

'Bout a lazy farmer who wouldn't hoe his corn

The reason why I never could tell

That young man was always well

He planted his corn in the month of June

By July it was up to his eyes

Come September came a big frost

And all the young man's corn was lost

His story kith had just begun

Said: Young man have you hoed some corn

Well I tried and I tried and I tried in vain

But I don't believe I raised no grain

He went down town to his neighbour's door

Where he had often been before

Sayin': Pretty little miss will you marry me

Little miss what do you say

Why do you come for me to wed

You can't even make your own corn grain

Single I am and will remain

A lazy man I won't maintain

He turned his back and walked away

Sayin: Little miss you'll rue the day

You'll rue the day that you were born

For givin' me the devil 'cos I wouldn't hoe corn
