Verse 1
G C
And the weatherman said to my friend, "What's your name?"
C7
My friend said, "Write yours down, mine is almost the same."
G C
Erase the "S" and "M" in their place put a "G" and "R"
C7
And an "ND" look at me what's that say
G C
Then the weatherman stood with his head hung in shame
C7
He took off his big belt, put it down, turned away
G C
But my friend said, "Don't leave, I just harvested beets,
C7
let's go eat at my place."
Verse 2
G C
With his mouth full the weatherman stared at his plate
C7
And he knew it was his heart that made my friend great
G C
Not his muscles, his money, his job or his name or his fame
C7
See my friend isn't famous
G C
He is just a good person who grows what he eats
C7
And if you have a mouth then he will try to feed you
G C
And if you are cold he'll put wood in the stove
C7
Grab a quilt and some warm flannel sheets
Verse 3
G C
So the Grand Champion called up Sam Champion
C7
Said, "Let's plant a garden in the heart of this wasteland."
G C
And Sam said, "Hey man, this'll be breaking news,"
C7
but Grand said, "I won't wait for your camera crews.
G C
See, I don't do what I do for the glory.
C7
I do what I do because it's a good story.
G C
I do what I do because there is a need and a
C7
hunger created by corporate greed.
Verse 4
G C
See, there's a surplus of food in this country,
C7
And nobody should ever go to sleep hungry,
G C
But that food is kept under lock and key
C7
Considered a privilege for people with money."
G C
Then the weatherman dropped to his hands his knees
C7
With a tear in his eye and unable to speak
G C
He was driven to action by only compassion
C7 G
He dug in the dirt and he planted some beans
C
Planted some beans
G
Planted some beans
C
Planted some beans
G
Planted some beans
Outro
N.C.
Grandma said to me
N.C.
If you only have one bean
N.C.
And you meet someone with no bean
N.C.
You should give them half your bean
N.C.
Cause you will be less hungry
N.C.
If you eat just half a bean
N.C.
Than if you eat a whole bean in front of somebody with no bean.
