Artist/Band: Johnny Cash
Lyrics for Song: Look At Them Beans
Lyrics for Album: Many Sides Of Johnny Cash [2003]



This time last year there sure was

A lot of sad faces around this old house

Our papa died without fulfillin' his life's dream

Of producing one of the best crops in Grimes County



Though papa died with that dream still in his head

A desire in his heart, a promise on his lips, calluses on both hands

And two dollars in his pocket

Papa didn't live long enough to see his dreams come true



So he died from too much work, broken spirit, I guess

But I promised our mama that if it was a last thing he'd ever do

He'd live long enough to see just one good crop come through

But you see we can't plan on things without first talking to God



Because we don't know his plans

And if we don't include him my friends the way can get mighty hard

They say that every time a good and righteous person

Is buried in God's good earth it's just fertilizer for the soil



And I guess there must be some truth to that

Whether we believe it or not

I just wish that papa was here right now

So that he could see this good crop that we finally got



Hey look at that beans and look at that corn

And I bet them watermelons must be three feet long

Man look at them tomatoes and look at them peas

Well I know if papa was here right now he'd sure be pleased



And papa would sure be proud of his children too

My brother's famous now got his own show on the road

Traveling in customized bus imported from Europe

That boy always did love music and he loves to travel



I got a sister that's got a good job in a beauty shop

Making money, making other people look good

Ain't nobody here at a house now but me and mama

And mama she's gettin' weaker and she's gettin' older every day



And she talks softly about joinin' papa in his heavenly home

But that woman sure did love that man

She worked beside papa for forty some odd years

Tryin' to produce a good crop and never could grow a single bean



But I just wish that papa was here right now

To see this good crop that we finally got

Man, look at that beans and look at that corn

And I bet them watermelons must be three feet long



Man, look at them tomatoes and look at them peas

Well, I know if papa was here right now he'd sure be pleased

And papa, if you can hear me look at them beans
