Chorus:
G C
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
G C
Goodbye don't you cry I'm going to Louisiana
D G
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
G C
Same song ding dong I'll take a trip to China
D G
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.
REPEAT CHORUS
G C
Wearin' shoes and drinkin' booze goes against the Bible.
D G
A necktie will make you die and cause you lots of trouble
G C
Streetcars and whiskey bars and kissing pretty women
D G
Women yeah that's the end of a terrible beginning
REPEAT CHORUS
G C
I can't read and don't care and education is awful
D G
Raisin' heck and writing checks it ought to be unlawful
G C
Silk hose and frilly clothes is just a waste of money
D G
Come with me and stay with me and say you'll be my honey
REPEAT CHORUS
That pretty much does it. Good simple traditional song. Enjoy.
