Beans Are Good For Your Heart (a honky-tonk singalong)
Lyrics
BEANS ARE GOOD FOR THE HEART

V
Sittin here in my favorite chair… with a cold beer in my hand..
audoir


Supper it seems… yet another can of beans..
Ever since you told me your plans..

As I enjoy another savory bite… I see what the cat drug in..
There you are…girl what a sight..
Wantin’ love and to be forgiven…

Well there’s .. just one problem…

C
Girl…I am so… over you… I’ve been just fine..
So don’t come around here… during my beans and beer…telling those lies…

Cause…. I’m past the hurtin…and I’ve made a brand new start…
I guess its true what they say..
You know beans … are good for your heart…

V
Girl ...it saddens me… cause I can plainly see
That your heart …is truly broken....
And while I’ve moved on… I hate for you to leave
My humble home… empty handed..

So let me offer you… a special...departing gift….
A little takee-outtee…as you go…
Here’s a great… big …steaming pile…
Just for you…. In a big ole bowl!

C
Girl…I am so… over you… I’ve been just fine..
So don’t come around here … during my beans and beer…telling those lies…

Cause…. I’m past the hurtin…and I’ve made a brand new start…
I guess its true what they say..
You know beans … are good for your heart…

Bridge..
Try navy…and green ….and black… and pintos..
Load down that shoppin cart..
If I were you I’d eat whole bunch..
Cause the more you eat … The more you…
Can I say that?

C
Girl…I am so… over you… I’ve been just fine..
So don’t come around here …during my beans and beer…telling those lies…

Cause…. I’m past the hurtin…and I’ve made a brand new start…
I guess its true what they say..
You know beans … are good for your heart…
You know beans … are good for your heart..
