Well, I might-a-gone fishin', I been thinkin' it over
The road to the river is a mighty long way
It must be the season, no rhyme or no reason
Just takin' it easy, it's my lazy day.

Well, never mind callin' 'cause I ain't a-comin'
Just pass on by me - stay out of my way
'Cause a little deep thinkin' might drive me to drinkin'
Just takin' it easy, it's my lazy day.

I'm findin' it easy to mind my own business
I'm keepin' my nose out of ev'ryone's way
I'm takin' no orders, ain't hirin' no people
Just takin' it easy, it's my lazy day.

Just takin' it easy, it's my lazy day.
