Beans and cornbread

Beans and cornbread

Beans and cornbread

Beans and cornbread had a fight

Beans knocked cornbread out of sight

Cornbread said now that's alright

Meet me on the corner tomorrow night

I'll be ready I'll be ready tomorrow night

I'll be ready I'll be ready tomorrow night

I'll be ready I'll be ready tomorrow night

That's what beans said to cornbread

I'll be ready tomorrow night

Beans told cornbread you ain't straight

You better wake up or I'll gash you gate

Been in this pot since half past two

Swelling and puffing and almost due

I'll be ready I'll be ready tomorrow night

That's what beans told cornbread

Always getting mad at me I ain't mad at you

I'll be ready tomorrow night

I'll be ready hmmmmm

Beans grabbed cornbread by the toe

Beans said cornbread let me go

Cornbread said I'll lay you low

I'm gonna fight you you so and so

Meet me on the corner

Meet me on the corner tomorrow night

That's what beans said to cornbread

You're so bad you always willing to fight

Meet me on the corner tomorrow night

And I'm gonna beat the devil out ya

On the corner tomorrow night

Beans hit cornbread on the head

Cornbread said I'm almost dead

Beans told cornbread get up man

You know that we go hand in hand

Beans and cornbread beans and cornbread hand in hand

That's what beans said to cornbread

We should stick together hand in hand

We should hang out together like weiners and saurkraut

We should stick together like hot dogs and mustard

We should get up every morning and hang out together like sisters and brothers

Every Saturday night we should hang out like chitlins and potato salad

Like strawberry and shortcake

Like corned beef and cabbage

Like liver and onions

Like red beans and rice

Like bagel and lox

Like sour cream and biscuit

Like bread and butter

Like hot cakes and molasses

Beans told corn bread

It makes no difference what you think about me

But it makes a whole lot of difference what I think about you

We should hang out together like hot cakes and molasses

That's what beans said to cornbread

Cause beans and cornbread

They go hand in hand
