Pinto Beans

Pinto Beans

Went on a domestic when I was working patrol, over in the housing projects. Had a southern boy’d married a girl from New York, and they were in an argument, probably a fight. But, anyway, when I got there it was all verbal.

And this New York girl said to this southern boy, “And another thing, all I ever get to eat is pinto beans, pinto beans. I’d like to have a pork chop every now and then.”

(chuckles) Pinto beans, she didn’t realize, being from the north, that pinto beans was a staple, a lifeline in Tennessee.

So, I don’t know if she ever got her pork chop or not.

I hope she got one.
