Temptation, Lust And Laziness Lyrics by Rick Danko

Last Summer (The Original Motion Picture Soundtrack)

1969

Temptation lust and laziness are coming after me
I ain't got time to fight it
Then I can settle down
Temptation lust and laziness lead me around
Oh my temptation in the corn field
Disguised to look like luck
There was a fifty dollar suit on the scarecrow
A-pleading to the pluck
I said Oh Lord above I wouldn't trade a baby for those clothes
And then Lord above he turned his head and scarecrow froze
Temptation lust and laziness are coming after me
I ain't got time to fight it
Then thеn I can settle down
Temptation lust and lazinеss lead me around
Oh night was warm and wicked and the moon began to howl
I pull it up to a fabulous farm-house
And lust was on the ground
The farmer's daughter said to me the farmer's gone downtown
Then you must be the salesman
So lay your samples down
Temptation lust and laziness are coming after me
I ain't got time to fight it
Then then I can settle down
Temptation lust and laziness lead me around
Oh laziness he got me drinking beer and playing card
He says it's just so lost in the graveyard
And she sends there a guard
They tell me money's out there and they're selling it for free
But I wait for temptation to bring it home to me
Temptation lust and laziness are coming after me
I ain't got time to fight it
Then then I can settle down
Temptation lust and laziness lead me around
