Beans Bacon And Gravy - Pete Seeger (皮特·西格)[00:00:00]
I was born long ago [00:00:09]
In eighteen ninety four[00:00:12]
I've seen many a panic I will own[00:00:14]
I've been hungry I've been cold [00:00:18]
And now I'm growin' old[00:00:21]
But the worst I've seen is nineteen thirty one[00:00:23]
Oh those beans bacon and gravy[00:00:27]
They almost drive me crazy[00:00:30]
I eat them 'til I see them in my dreams[00:00:32]
In my dreams[00:00:35]
When I wake up in the morning[00:00:36]
And another day is dawning[00:00:38]
I know I'll have another mess of beans[00:00:41]
Well we congregate each morning [00:00:45]
At the county barn at dawning[00:00:47]
Everyone is happy so it seems[00:00:50]
But when our day's work is done [00:00:54]
And we pile in one by one[00:00:56]
And thank the Lord for one more mess of beans[00:00:59]
Oh those beans bacon and gravy[00:01:03]
They almost drive me crazy[00:01:06]
I eat them 'til I see them in my dreams[00:01:08]
In my dreams[00:01:11]
When I wake up in the morning[00:01:12]
And another day is dawning[00:01:14]
I know I'll have another mess of beans[00:01:17]
We've Hooverized on butter [00:01:26]
And for milk we've only water[00:01:28]
And I haven't seen a steak in many a day[00:01:30]
As for pies cakes and jellies [00:01:34]
We substitute sour bellies[00:01:37]
For which we work the county road each day[00:01:39]
Oh those beans bacon and gravy[00:01:43]
They almost drive me crazy[00:01:46]
I eat them 'til I see them in my dreams[00:01:48]
In my dreams[00:01:51]
When I wake up in the morning[00:01:52]
And another day is dawning[00:01:55]
I know I'll have another mess of beans[00:01:57]
If there ever comes a time [00:02:01]
When I have more than a dime[00:02:04]
They will have to put me under lock and key[00:02:06]
For they've had me broke so long [00:02:10]
I can only sing this song[00:02:13]
Of the workers and their misery[00:02:15]
Oh those beans bacon and gravy[00:02:19]
They almost drive me crazy[00:02:22]
I eat them 'til I see them in my dreams[00:02:24]
In my dreams[00:02:27]
When I wake up in the morning[00:02:28]
And another day is dawning[00:02:31]
I know I'll have another mess of beans[00:02:33]
