Lyrics
The Laziest Gal In Town
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
It's not 'cause I shouldn't
It's not 'cause I wouldn't
And, you know
That is not 'cause I couldn't
It's simply because
I'm the laziest gal in town
My poor heart is achin'
To bring home some bacon
And if I find myself
Alone and forsaken
It's simply because
I'm the laziest gal in town
Though I'm more
Than willing to learn
How these gals
Get money to burn
Every little proposition
I turn it down
'Way down
It's not 'cause I wouldn't
It's not 'cause I shouldn't
And, you know
That it's not 'cause
I couldn't
It's simply because
I'm the laziest gal in town
