Lyrics
I like lazy weather, I like lazy days
Can’t be blamed for having lazy ways
Some old lazy river sleeps beside my door
Whip’ring to the sunlit shore
Chorus
Up a lazy river by the old mill run
That lazy, lazy river in the noonday sun
Linger in the shade of a kind old tree
Throw away your troubles, dream a dream with me
Up a lazy river where the robin’s song
Awakes a abright new morning, we can loaf along
Blue skies up above, everyone’s in love
Up a lazy river, how happy you can be
Up a lazy river with me
Performance
