[Chorus]
G                                            C
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D                                                 G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G                                               C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D                                                 G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over

[Verse 1]

Goodbye don't you cry I'm going to Louisiana
D                                             G
Buy a coon dog and a big fat hog and marry Suzianna.
G                                       C
Same song ding dong I'll take a trip to China
D                                              G
Cornbread and butterbeans and back to North Carolina.

[Chorus]
G                                            C
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D                                                 G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G                                               C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D                                                 G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over

[Verse 2]
G                                                 C
Wearin' shoes and drinkin' booze goes against the Bible.
D                                                   G
A necktie will make you die and cause you lots of trouble
G                                                 C
Streetcars and whiskey bars and kissing pretty women
D                                         G
Women yeah that's the end of a terrible beginning

[Chorus]

Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D                                                 G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G                                               C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D                                                 G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over

[Verse 3]
G                                              C
I can't read and don't care and education is awful
D                                                   G
Raisin' heck and writing checks it ought to be unlawful
G                                                 C
Silk hose and frilly clothes is just a waste of money
D                                                   G
Come with me and stay with me and say you'll be my honey

[Chorus]
G                                            C
Cornbread and butterbeans and you across the table
D                                                 G
Eating them beans and making love as long as I am able
G                                               C
Growing corn and cotton too and when the day is over
D                                                 G
Ride the mule and cut the fool and love again all over
