Beans, Bacon and Gravey - Pete Seeger
I was born long ago

In eighteen ninety four
I've seen many a panic
I will own

I've been hungry
I've been cold

And now I'm growin' old

But the worst I've seen
Is nineteen thirty one

Oh those beans
Bacon and gravy

They almost drive me crazy

I eat them till
I see them in my dreams
In my dreams
When I wake up in the morning
And another day is dawning

I know I'll have another

Mess of beans

Well we congregate each morning

At the County barn at dawning

Everyone is happy so it seems

But when our day's work is done
And we pile in one by one

And thank the lord for one more
Mess of beans

Oh those beans
Bacon and gravy
They almost drive me crazy
I eat them till
I see them in my dreams

In my dreams
When I wake up in the morning
And another day is dawning

I know I'll have another

Mess of beans

We've hooverized on butter
And for milk we've only water

And I haven't seen a steak
In many a day

As for pies
Cakes and jellies
We substitute sour bellies
For which we work the County
Road each day

Oh those beans
Bacon and gravy
They almost drive me crazy

I eat them till
I see them in my dreams

In my dreams

When I wake up in the morning
And another day is dawning

I know I'll have another
Mess of beans

If there ever comes a time
When I have more than a dime

They will have to put me
Under lock and key

For they've had me broke so long
I can only sing this song

Of the workers and their misery

Oh those beans
Bacon and gravy
They almost drive me crazy

I eat them till
I see them in my dreams

In my dreams
When I wake up in the morning
And another day is dawning

I know I'll have another
Mess of beans
