Don't Be Lazy
The Lord doesn't want us to squander away our time and be lazy.
If you are like that then your life just ends up being crazy.

You cannot sleep all night and all day long too.
We are to be working at our jobs and God's words are true.

Many people expect others to take care of them, no matter the cost.
The people who won't work are foolish and everything they do get will soon be lost.

Then poverty will beset those folks they will moan and groan and blame everyone else but them.
I believe that a lazybones in the eyes of God is another of life's sins.

Don't be fooled by the lazybones for they care of only what they can get from you for free.
I made that mistake myself and when they got what they could I was history
