< instrumental opening >

It's lazy weather,
I'm just full of dreams,
of nooks and brooks an' idle fishing streams . . .

Lazy weather,
workin' ain't no good,
now's the time we should
twiddle thumbs and whittle woods

Lazy weather,
good for nuthin' time
but joy an' love an' melody an' rhyme

Aw . . . get together
meet her in the lane
It's lazy weather time again . . .

< instrumental close
with Elmo Tanner whistling >
