I couldn't hear you for the tv, I didn't know you said goodbye I saw your cancelled check for the airfare, didn't know flyin' got too high Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can I've run out of clean utensils, I'm a hungry, nasty lonesome man I heard the crows outside my window, guess it's me they're talkin' about The fire you lit has burnt to cinders, every good thing's fizzled out Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can Wish you'd come back and wash the dishes, I'm a hungry, nasty lonesome man Caught a cold with the window open, crow droppings on my window sill Probably got histoplasmosis, got no gun or I would kill them crows Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can Plastic forks are a dime a dozen, I'm a hungry, nasty lonesome man Finally made it to the mailbox, felt so bad I thought I'd die All I got was a bill from my doctor, well I guess flyin' ain't so high Beans for breakfast once again, hard to eat 'em from the can Blue tick mattress cold and greasy, I'm a hungry, nasty lonesome man The house burned down from the fire that I built In your closet by mistake after I took all them pills But I got out safe in my duck head overalls Beans for breakfast once again, I'm a hungry, nasty lonesome man
