Lyrics:

Lazy sun is shining and the air is sweet
Make you feel so drowsy you can't move your geet
Wanna find an easy chair and go to sleep
On the Lazy 'sippi steamer going home

Cotton fields are wearing on their snowy white
Lordy but that homeland is a welcome sight
It's hard to keep believing that you're seeing right
On the Lazy 'sippi steamer going home

Now hear that humming in the bayou
Hear that singing on the shore
Friends and neighbors saying 'Hi you'
Can't keep away from the place you adore

Lazy breeze's blowing but it blows me straight
Two to one who's waiting by the landing gate
Oh move along you slowpokes, can't you see I am late
From the Lazy 'sippi steamer going home
