Sister soak the beans — текст песни (Ely Joe)

CHORUS
Sister, soak the beans
I`ll be comin Home to Chop the Onion
Mama, light the stove
It`ll take a while for the cornbread to get done
I`ll be comin` home
I`ve had enough, I`m done with self-denial
Can`t you hear me moan?
Set the table, I`ll be there in a while

Workin` on the run
Burnin` cactus down on the Rio Grande
No shade from the sun
Just wishin` I`d get done with shovelin` sand

Repeat CHORUS

I been gone so long
Callin` cattle on the Goodnight Lovin` Line
Can`t you hear my song
The canteen`s dry as the dust that`s in my eyes

Repeat CHORUS

Last time I got stuck
In a Yankee city up above the Dixon Line
I run plum out of luck
Not an inch of enchalada could I find

I`ll be comin` home
I`ve had enough, I`m done with self-denial
No Peace can I find
Set the table, I`ll be there in a while
