Cornbread And Butterbeans
Carolina Chocolate Drops

[Chorus:]

Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table*

Eatin' beans and makin' love as long as I am able

Growin' corn and cotton too and when the day is over

Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over


Hoein' corn and cotton too I'm going to Louisiana

To buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Susie Anna

Same song ding dong I'll take a trip to China

Cornbread and butterbeans then back to North Carolina


[Repeat Chorus:]


[Lead:]


Wearin' shoes and drinking booze it goes against the Bible

A necktie will make you die and cause you lots of trouble

Streetcars and whiskey bars and kissing pretty women


Women yeah that's the end of a terrible beginning


[Repeat Chorus:]


I can't read and don't care and education's awful

Raising heck and writin' checks it ought to be unlawful

Silk hose and frilly clothes is just a waste of money

Come with me and stay with me and say you

ll be my honey


[Repeat Chorus:]


[Lead:]


[Repeat Chorus:]
