I heard I must keep living

I know you'd want me to

So let's live this life to pieces

Dedicate each day to you

My bra is full of crystals and tiny pics of you

Let's go see where the bugs sing

And where the pole beans bloom

I'll love this land 'cause it's you

Meet me in the bean fields

In the shank of the evening

Gonna lay down where you laid down

And look for satellites of love

Meet us in the bean fields

In the shank of the morning light

Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine

Talkin' 'bout you all the time

I'm living out of boxes

I packed them two by two

I gotta keep on chooglin'

That choice was taken from you

Gather up, sisters, cousins, and brothers

Friends, Nan, and Delbert too

Let's go be where the bugs sing

And where the pole beans bloom

We love this land 'cause it's you

Meet me in the bean fields

In the shank of the evening

Gonna lay down where you laid down

And look for satellites of love

Meet us in the bean fields

In the shank of the morning light

Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine

Talkin' 'bout you all the time

Though the air is hot and sticky

And the ground, it's mighty spiky

Those bugs sing loud and proud 'cause we're together all the time

Holding hands and dryin' eyes

Sharing tales, it's no surprise

I'll bottle this and drink it every day

Meet me in the bean fields

In the shank of the evening

Gonna lay down where you laid down

And look for satellites of love

Meet us in the bean fields

In the shank of the morning light

Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine

Talkin' 'bout you all the time

Meet me in the bean fields

In the shank of the evening

Gonna lay down where you laid down

And look for satellites of love

Meet me in the bean fields

In the shank of the morning light

Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine

Talkin' 'bout you all the time
