Goober Peas - Burl Ives (伯尔·艾夫斯)

Sitting by the roadside on a summer's day

Chatting with my mess mates passing time away

Lying in the shadows underneath the trees

Goodness how delicious eating goober peas

Peas peas peas peas

Eating goober peas

Goodness how delicious

Eating goober peas

When a horse man passes the soldiers have a rule

To cry out their loudest Mister here's your mule

But another custom enchanting er than these

Is wearing out your grinders eating goober peas

Peas peas peas peas

Eating goober peas

Goodness how delicious

Eating goober peas

Just before the battle the General hears a row

He says The Yanks are coming I hear their rifles now

He looks down the roadway and what d'ya think he sees

The Georgia Militia cracking goober peas

Peas peas peas peas

Eating goober peas

Goodness how delicious

Eating goober peas

I think my song has lasted almost long enough

The subject's interesting but the rhymes are mighty tough

I wish this war was over and free from rags and fleas

We'd kiss our wives and sweethearts and gobble goober peas

Peas peas peas peas

Gobble goober peas

We'd kiss our wives and sweethearts

And gobble goober peas
