Sister Soak The Beans |
| Sister, soak the beans |
| I’ll be comin Home to Chop the Onion |
| Mama, light the stove |
| It’ll take a while for the cornbread to get done |
| I’ll be comin’home |
| I’ve had enough, I’m done with self-denial |
| Can’t you hear me moan? |
| Set the table, I’ll be there in a while |
| Workin’on the run |
| Burnin’cactus down on the Rio Grande |
| No shade from the sun |
| Just wishin’I’d get done with shovelin’sand |
| Repeat CHORUS |
| I been gone so long |
| Callin’cattle on the Goodnight Lovin’Line |
| Can’t you hear my song |
| The canteen’s dry as the dust that’s in my eyes |
| Repeat CHORUS |
| Last time I got stuck |
| In a Yankee city up above the Dixon Line |
| I run plum out of luck |
| Not an inch of enchalada could I find |
| I’ll be comin’home |
| I’ve had enough, I’m done with self-denial |
| No Peace can I find |
| Set the table, I’ll be there in a while |
