Simple song with simple chords in STANDARD TUNING.
Okay before the chords and lyrics there will be a simple way to play the
intro type thing that is actually a banjo. THE CHORD STRUCTURES IN THE
TAB WILL NOT DISPLAY STRUMMING SO ITS EASY ON ME.
SINCE THERE ARE NO TABS FOR THIS BAND I MUST PROVIDE A LINK TO THEM SO
IT IS www.carolinachocolatedrops.com and THAT IS THEIR OFFICIAL WEBSITE

[Chorus]
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
Goodbye don t you cry I m going to Louisiana
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
Same song ding dong I ll take a trip to China
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.
[Chorus]
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
Goodbye don t you cry I m going to Louisiana
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
Same song ding dong I ll take a trip to China
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.
[Verse 1]
Wearin shoes and drinkin booze 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
[Chorus]
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
Goodbye don t you cry I m going to Louisiana
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
Same song ding dong I ll take a trip to China
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.
[Verse 2]
I can t read and don t care and education is awful
Raisin heck and writing 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
[Chorus]
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
Goodbye don t you cry I m going to Louisiana
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
Same song ding dong I ll take a trip to China
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.
That pretty much does it. Good simple traditional song. Enjoy.
