Johnny Cash Beans For Breakfast Lyrics

Beans For Breakfast Lyrics

I couldn't hear you for the TV

I didn't know you said goodbye

I saw your canceled check for the airfare

Didn't know flyin' got too high



Beans for breakfast once again

Hard to eat 'em from the can

I've run out of clean utensils

I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man



I heard the crows outside my window

Guess, it's me they're talkin' about

The fire you lit, has burnt to cinders

Every good thing's fizzled out



Beans for breakfast once again

Hard to eat 'em from the can

Wish, you'd come back and wash the dishes

I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man



Caught a cold with the windows open

Crow droppings on my window sill

Probably got histoplasmosis

Got no gun or I would kill them crows



Beans for breakfast once again

Hard to eat 'em from the can

Plastic forks are a dime a dozen

I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man



Finally made it to the mailbox

Felt so bad I thought, I'd die

All I got was a bill from my doctor

Well, I guess flyin' ain't so high



Bean for breakfast once again

Hard to eat 'em from the can

Blue tick mattress cold and greasy

I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man



The house burned down from the fire that I built

In your closet by mistake

After I took all them pills

But I got out safe in my duck head overalls



Beans for breakfast once again

I'm a hungry nasty lonesome man
