《Look At Them Beans》歌词

[00:00:00] Look At Them Beans - Johnny Cash

[00:00:04] Written by：Joe Tex

[00:00:06] This time last year there sure was

[00:00:08] A lot of sad faces

[00:00:10] Around this old house

[00:00:11] Our papa died without fulfillin'

[00:00:13] His life's dream

[00:00:14] Of producing one of the best crops

[00:00:16] In Grimes county

[00:00:18] Though papa died with that dream

[00:00:19] Still in his head

[00:00:21] A desire in his heart a promise on his lips

[00:00:24] Calluses on both hands

[00:00:24] And two dollars in his pocket

[00:00:27] Papa didn't live long enough

[00:00:28] To see his dreams come true

[00:00:30] So he died from too much work

[00:00:31] Broken spirit I guess

[00:00:33] But I promised our mama

[00:00:34] That if it was a last thing he'd ever do

[00:00:37] He'd live long enough to see

[00:00:38] Just one good crop come through

[00:00:41] But you see we can't plan on things

[00:00:43] Without first talking to god

[00:00:44] Because we don't know his plans

[00:00:46] And if we don't include him

[00:00:48] My friends the way can get mighty hard

[00:00:50] They say that every time

[00:00:52] A good and righteous person

[00:00:53] Is buried in god's good earth

[00:00:55] It's just fertilizer for the soil

[00:00:57] And I guess there must be some truth to that

[00:00:59] Whether we believe it or not

[00:01:01] I just wish that papa was here right now

[00:01:03] So that he could see

[00:01:04] This good crop that we finally got

[00:01:08] Hey look at that beans

[00:01:10] And look at that corn

[00:01:13] And I bet them watermelons

[00:01:15] Must be three feet long

[00:01:18] Man look at them tomatoes

[00:01:20] And look at them peas

[00:01:23] Well I know if papa was here

[00:01:26] Right now he'd sure be pleased

[00:01:36] And papa would sure

[00:01:37] Be proud of his children too

[00:01:40] My brother's famous

[00:01:40] Now got his own show on the road

[00:01:43] Traveling in customized

[00:01:44] Bus imported from Europe

[00:01:46] That boy always did love

[00:01:47] Music and he loves to travel

[00:01:49] I got a sister that's got a good job

[00:01:51] In a beauty shop

[00:01:52] Making money

[00:01:53] Making other people look good

[00:01:55] Ain't nobody here at a house

[00:01:56] Now but me and mama

[00:01:58] And mama she's gettin' weaker

[00:01:59] And she's gettin' older every day

[00:02:02] And she talks softly about joinin' papa

[00:02:04] In his heavenly home

[00:02:05] But that woman sure did love that man

[00:02:08] She worked beside papa

[00:02:09] For forty some odd years

[00:02:11] Tryin' to produce a good crop

[00:02:13] And never could grow a single bean

[00:02:16] But I just wish

[00:02:17] That papa was here right now

[00:02:19] To see this good crop

[00:02:20] That we finally got

[00:02:22] Man look at that beans

[00:02:25] And look at that corn

[00:02:28] And I bet them watermelons

[00:02:30] Must be three feet long

[00:02:33] Man look at them tomatoes

[00:02:35] And look at them peas

[00:02:38] Yes I know if papa was here

[00:02:40] Right now he'd sure be pleased

[00:02:44] And papa if you can hear me

[00:02:48] Look at them beans
