Look at Them Beans (1975) - Jarrod[00:00:01]

This time last year there sure was[00:00:11]

A lot of sad faces around this old house[00:00:13]

Our papa died without fulfillin' his life's dream[00:00:16]

Of producing one of[00:00:18]

The best crops in Grimes County[00:00:19]

Though papa died with[00:00:22]

That dream still in his head[00:00:23]

A desire in his heart [00:00:25]

A promise on his lips [00:00:27]

Calluses on both hands[00:00:28]

And two dollars in his pocket[00:00:28]

Papa didn't live long enough[00:00:30]

To see his dreams come true[00:00:32]

So he died from too much work [00:00:33]

Broken spirit I guess[00:00:35]

But I promised our mama that if[00:00:36]

It was a last thing he'd ever do[00:00:39]

He'd live long enough to see just[00:00:40]

One good crop come through[00:00:42]

But you see we can't plan on[00:00:44]

Things without first talking to God[00:00:46]

Because we don't know his plans[00:00:48]

And if we don't include him my friends[00:00:51]

The way can get mighty hard[00:00:52]

They say that every time a good and righteous person[00:00:55]

Is buried in God's good earth[00:00:57]

It's just fertilizer for the soil[00:00:58]

And I guess there must be some truth to that[00:01:02]

Whether we believe it or not[00:01:04]

I just wish that papa was here right now[00:01:07]

So that he could see this[00:01:09]

Good crop that we finally got[00:01:10]

Hey look at that beans and look at that corn[00:01:12]

And I bet them watermelons must be three feet long[00:01:18]

Man look at them tomatoes and look at them peas[00:01:22]

Well I know if papa was here[00:01:28]

Right now he'd sure be pleased[00:01:30]

And papa would sure be proud of his children too[00:01:42]

My brother's famous now got his own show on the road[00:01:47]

Traveling in customized bus imported from Europe[00:01:50]

That boy always did love music and he loves to travel[00:01:54]

I got a sister that's got a good job in a beauty shop[00:01:58]

Making money making other people look good[00:02:01]

Ain't nobody here at a house now but me and mama[00:02:06]

And mama she's gettin' weaker[00:02:10]

And she's gettin' older every day[00:02:11]

And she talks softly about[00:02:14]

Joinin' papa in his heavenly home[00:02:15]

But that woman sure did love that man[00:02:18]

She worked beside papa[00:02:20]

For forty some odd years[00:02:21]

Tryin' to produce a good crop[00:02:22]

And never could grow a single bean[00:02:25]

But I just wish that papa was here right now[00:02:31]

To see this good crop that we finally got[00:02:33]

Man look at that beans and look at that corn[00:02:37]

And I bet them watermelons[00:02:42]

Must be three feet long[00:02:44]

Man look at them tomatoes and look at them peas[00:02:47]

Well I know if papa was[00:02:52]

Here right now he'd sure be pleased[00:02:54]

And papa if you can hear me look at them beans[00:03:00]
