Il testo della Sister soak the beans

Chorus
Sister, soak the beans
I'll be comin home to chop the onion
Mama, light the stove
It'll take a while for the cornbread to get done
I'll be comin' home
I've had enough, i'm done with self-denial
Can't you hear me moan?
Set the table, i'll be there in a while

Workin' on the run
Burnin' cactus down on the rio grande
No shade from the sun
Just wishin' i'd get done with shovelin' sand

Repeat chorus

I been gone so long
Callin' cattle on the goodnight lovin' line
Can't you hear my song
The canteen's dry as the dust that's in my eyes

Repeat chorus

Last time i got stuck
In a yankee city up above the dixon line
I run plum out of luck
Not an inch of enchalada could i find

I'll be comin' home
I've had enough, i'm done with self-denial
No peace can i find
Set the table, i'll be there in a while
