Beans in a Bowl

Lyrics

[Verse]
In a small Kentucky town, near the old coal mine,
Wearing bibbed overalls, feeling just fine,
Beans in a bowl, warming on the stove,
Life's simple pleasures, all I've ever known.

[Verse 2]
Got a degree in art, paints under the bed,
But life took a turn, to radiology instead,
Remote lectures and scans, learning all night,
Dreams in the daytime, somehow feels right.

[Chorus]
Beans in a bowl, heart full of dreams,
Jumping thru hoops, or so it seems,
Life's full of changes, more than we know,
But I'll be alright with beans in a bowl.

[Verse 3]
Weekends at the park, sketchbook in hand,
Old oak tree witness to dreams so grand,
Bibbed overalls, paint stains on the knees,
Future's wide open, like the Kentucky breeze.

[Bridge]
Sacrifices made, and ambitions pursued,
Balancing both, in a heartfelt groove,
Art and science, both part of my soul,
Still finding solace in beans in a bowl.

[Chorus]
Beans in a bowl, heart full of dreams,
Jumping thru hoops, or so it seems,
Life's full of changes, more than we know,
But I'll be alright with beans in a bowl.
