What's so stupid about this song? It was made in 1949! Brothers in the South wasn't trying to be refined.

Hell, Beans and Cornbread sound tasty right now!

[StrongIntelligent]

I don't care if there's any themes running through this song, IT'S A SONG ABOUT BEANS AND CORNBREAD HAVING A FIGHT. THAT IS WHY IT'S GREAT.

[jayking1399]

hahahahahahaha........beans and cornbread....hahahahahahahahah

[aRtIzMyLyFe0711]

watchin Malcom-X but i remember back in my day when TBS did Dinner & a Movie and they used this song in the promos

[pologrounds25]

@Lordbaldur - wow! really!?!?! guess this song is NOT for you since it's message is for beans and cornbread to get along and be friends "They go hand in hand"

[202tyree]

@Lordbaldur no one is calling you cornbread, your calling yourself cornbread dumbass.

[zoe4030]

this song is funny and catchy,and cool

[ospunky28]

People can say what they want about this song but it was made during the height of racism in this country with segregation, along with other things that still exist. I give them credit for overcoming all the negativity and still making a rather fun song and still put a creative spin on it. All he's saying is we should all get along whether you're black or white. Hence, "beans & cornbread" It's the diots making those racist comments below that this song was intended for. SAD, SAD, SAD....

[SarahBaby59]

YOU GUYS DON'T KNOW REAL MUSIC. Judging him cause he's black? It's just disrespectul.

[Dringa]

[RLcalasian]

THUMBS UP IF YOU WERE SENT FROM THE FARAWAY LAND OF JUSTINTV!
