Lyrics

Good mornin', judge
I'm here again
Just before you and your jury mens
Now, if you give me a chance
I'll try to explain
Why I deserted my wife Eva
Now, I know she's my best gal, it's true
But how would you like for your wife to give to you?
She gave me beans for my breakfast
Beans for my lunch
Beans that suffer
Tall, whitey gal
She had string beans, baked beans
Boiled beans, navy beans
Beans, rain or shine
Well, she had no ham, no chicken, no lamb
She gave me beans, beans, beans, boy
Beans for my breakfast
Beans for my lunch
Beans that suffer
Time
She had string beans, baked beans
Boiled beans, navy beans
Beans, rain or shine
Well, she had no ham, no chicken, no lamb
She gave me beans, beans, beans, boy
Here's my children over here
Let them speak for themselves
Please hear what they have to say
Now gather 'round here children
And tell the judge what you may
Go ahead and tell him what your mother gave you
Each and every single day
Beans for my breakfast
Beans for my lunch
Beans that suffer
Time
She had string beans, baked beans
Boiled beans, navy beans
Beans, rain or shine
Well, she had no ham, no chicken, no lamb
She gave me beans, beans, beans
Now I work and I give my wife every cent
Just to buy the food and pay house rent
But her ways it fill me with a discontent soul
I thought it was best I leave her
Now I know she's my best gal, it's true
But how would you like for your wife to give to you?
Beans, beans, beans in the morning
Beans, beans, beans, that's what she give me
Beans, beans, beans for supper
Beans, beans, beans, she's a fool
Beans, beans, beans, I'm cuttin' now
Beans, no more beans
