[Verse 1]
I heard I must keep living
I know you'd want me to
So let's live this life to pieces
Dedicate each day to you
My bra is full of crystals and tiny pics of you
Let's go see where the bugs sing
And where the pole beans bloom
I'll love this land 'cause it's you

[Chorus]
Meet me in the bean fields
In the shank of the evening
Gonna lay down where you laid down
And look for satellites of love
Meet us in the bean fields
In the shank of the morning light
Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine
Talkin' 'bout you all the time

[Verse 2]
I'm living out of boxes
I packed them two by two
I gotta keep on chooglin'
That choice was taken from you
Gather up, sisters, cousins, and brothers
Friends, Nan, and Delbert too
Let's go be where the bugs sing
And where the pole beans bloom
We love this land 'cause it's you
[Chorus]
Meet me in the bean fields
In the shank of the evening
Gonna lay down where you laid down
And look for satellites of love
Meet us in the bean fields
In the shank of the morning light
Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine
Talkin' 'bout you all the time

[Instrumental Break]

[Bridge]
Though the air is hot and sticky
And the ground, it's mighty spiky
Those bugs sing loud and proud 'cause we're together all the time
Holding hands and dryin' eyes
Sharing tales, it's no surprise
I'll bottle this and drink it every day

[Chorus]
Meet me in the bean fields
In the shank of the evening
Gonna lay down where you laid down
And look for satellites of love
Meet us in the bean fields
In the shank of the morning light
Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine
Talkin' 'bout you all the time
[Chorus]
Meet me in the bean fields
In the shank of the evening
Gonna lay down where you laid down
And look for satellites of love
Meet us in the bean fields
In the shank of the morning light
Gonna bring bouquets and bottles of wine
Talkin' 'bout you all the time
