G C
Mama, I’ve found someone, like you said I took her home
C G D7
She has no snout | but she’s no doubt | the biggest pig I’ve known
G C
I thought that she |would help me out | with the laundry and the chores
C G
But there are those who won’t wash clothes
D7 G
And guess who’s scrubbin’ the floors.
[Chorus 1]
G C
Mama she’s lazy, lazier than me,
G D7
And on my couch | is where she sits,| she’s always gonna be
G C
I never slept that long; she beats all I’ve ever seen
G D7 G
Mama she’s lazy, she’s lazier than me.
[Verse 2]
G C
And Mama, you always said, “Get the lead out of your pants.”
C G D7
But that old phrase | don’t phase her days | she’s always in a trance.
G C
She’s hung up on | the movie stars | on the afternoon TV
G
And now I’m concerned | she ain’t worth a dern
D7 G
And I can’t even get her to leave.
[Chorus 2]
G C
Mama she’s lazy, lazier than me,
G D7
And on my couch | is where she sits,| she’s always gonna be
G G7 C
She’s never swept the floor | since she swept me off my feet
G D7 G
Mama she’s lazy, she’s lazier than me.
C G D7 G
Oh, Mama she’s lazy, she’s lazier than me.
