It's a lazy afternoon; Feel like singin' a lazy tune, With the grass for my bed, And a plum tree shady overhead. But the barley's not yet in; I hear tell it should've been, And I've no call to lie here dreaming on a lazy afternoon. There's a bee comes buzzin' by; Got his chores, and so have I: Heard a song about the bee, Says that busy little bug might be me! Gettin' honey, sun to sun, 'Til the honey harvest's done.
