Passes out his moans and groans
The devil ain't no lazy bones,
he works twenty -four hours a day.
The devil ain't lazy, no sirree,
the devil ain't lazy, no sirree.
He likes to see us fight and fuss,
he makes us mean enough to cuss,
And then he blames it all on us,
he works twenty -four hours a day.
He travels like a lightning streak
and strikes from town to town, Yes, yes.
And if he gets you when you're weak,
he'll tear your playhouse down.
The devil ain't lazy, no sirree.
The devil ain't lazy, no sirree.
Tells us he won't hurt a fly,
then he makes us steal and lie.
Keeps us sinning till we die,
The devil ain't lazy, no siree
The devil ain't lazy, no siree
He gets his pitchfork out each night
To give the folks an awful fright
I think he does it just for spite
He works twenty -four hours a day
The devil ain't lazy, no siree
The devil ain't lazy, no siree
He tells us how to find success
I know we'll wind up in distress
The devil is an awful mess
He works twenty -four hours a day
He likes to see things scorch and burn,
Awe some! he catches you,
he'll turn you every way but loose.
The devil ain't lazy. Blasphemy!
The devil ain't lazy. Blasphemy!
smart enough to not behave,
