Laziest Girl In Town

I've a beau, his name is Jim
He loves me, I love him
But he tells me I'm too prim
That means I'm too slow
I let him rant, I let him rave
I let him muss my permanent wave
But when he says "Let's misbehave"
My reply is "No!"

It's not 'cause I shouldn't
It's not 'cause I wouldn't
And you know
It's not 'cause I couldn't
It's simply becasue I'm the laziest gal in town

My poor heart is achin'
To bring home some bacon
And when I'll find myself alone and forsaken
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town

Though I'm more
Than I willing to learn
How these girls get so much extra money to burn
Every little proposition
I just turn it down
Way down

It's not 'cause I shouldn't
It's not 'cause I couldn't
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I couldn't
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town

Though I'm more
Than I willing to learn
How these girls get so much extra money to burn
Every little proposition
I just turn it down
Way down

It's not 'cause I shouldn't
It's not 'cause I couldn't
And, Lord knows, it's not 'cause I wouldn't
It's simply because I'm the laziest gal in town
