Butterbean Lyrics

Yeah, if you go down to Athens, G-A And you're driving in your car You won't get very far before You hear people shoutin' out! What's that? Buterbean! Yeah! Gramps and grannies Kids in their teens Junkyard dogs and campus queens Yeah, everybody likes butterbeans Don't you wait, don't you linger Butterbean don't slip through my fingers Pass me plate full, I'll be grateful 1-2-3-4 Pick 'em, hull 'em, put on the steam That's how we fix butterbeans (Fix 'em hot hot hot) (Yeah, make 'em jump outta the pot) Come here you little butterbean you come on! Butterbean-butterbean Butterbean-butterbean Butterbean-butterbean Butterbean-butterbean Butterbean grows on the vine Some people are fat, some people are lean But I want you to show me the person Who doesn't like butterbeans Yay! Well, you can have your yams You can have your collard greens BUt if you want to please little ol' me You better fix butterbeans Don't you wait, don't you linger Butterbean don't slip through my fingers Pick 'em, hull 'em, put on the steam That's how we fix butterbeans (Fix 'em hot hot hot) (Yeah, make 'em jump outta the pot) Fix 'em for me now
